Notes
Studio recording, 1995. Gear confirmed for early Oasis studio sessions. No evidence of pedal use for clean sections; amp settings from period-correct sources. Clean section likely uses same guitar/amp as main riff but with lower gain/volume.

Difficulty
The clean riff section is rhythmically straightforward and uses basic chord shapes, with the main challenge being consistent picking dynamics and clarity.
