Notes

Studio recording, 2003 (Hail to the Thief sessions). Ed O'Brien is confirmed to use the Gibson ES-335 for 'Scatterbrain' in the studio, visible in video/photo evidence. Amp is Fender Super-Sonic 112, as seen in Equipboard photo evidence. No explicit evidence of pedal use for the riff section; pedalboard evidence is primarily from later live/touring setups.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate skill due to its use of extended chords, clean single-note picking, and dynamic control to maintain clarity and articulation throughout the part.
