Notes
Studio recording, 2010s era. No direct evidence of live rig or alternate guitars/amps for this song. All gear references are inferred from Honeydip's own amp design and genre conventions. No evidence of alternate guitars or humbuckers for the riff section.

Difficulty
The riff is not technically complex but requires careful control of dynamics and muting to avoid muddiness with heavy fuzz and modulation. The main challenge is maintaining clarity and timing in a dense, effect-laden mix.
