Notes

Studio recording, 2002-2003 (Hail to the Thief sessions). Guitar and amp inferred from Radiohead's typical studio setup for this era and genre, with supporting evidence from multiple sources referencing Telecaster Plus and Twin Reverb for similar tones. No direct studio photo or interview for this exact song, but no evidence of alternate gear.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate skill due to its syncopated picking, precise timing with subtle delay, and dynamic control to maintain clarity with edge-of-breakup tones.
