Notes
Studio recording, 2002. Gear based on Chevelle's known studio setup for 'Wonder What's Next' album. No direct source confirms exact clean amp model for this song, but Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier is widely cited for this era. PRS Custom 24 confirmed as Loeffler's main guitar in studio.

The clean riff requires precise picking and chord voicings in Drop B tuning, but does not involve advanced techniques or fast tempo, making it moderately easy for intermediate players.
