Notes

Gear is based on studio-era (2021) for 'Taunt' recording, not live rig. Guitar confirmed via Equipboard and Lovejoy Local. Amp is Quad Cortex (amp modeler) into Orange PPC412 cab, as seen in studio photos. Pedalboard from this era includes EHX Canyon Delay, Fender Bubbler Chorus, and Sovtek Big Muff. No evidence of other amps or guitars used for this riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires moderately fast, syncopated strumming and clean chord transitions, but does not involve advanced techniques or complex lead work. The main challenge is rhythmic consistency and clarity with effects engaged.
