Notes

Studio recording, 2014 (Chasing Yesterday sessions). Noel Gallagher states he used his 1960s Gibson ES-355 as the basis for everything and mentions the Fender Blues Junior as his main live and studio amp for High Flying Birds. No evidence of Marshall or Hiwatt for the clean riff section. No evidence of pedalboard effects for the clean part.

Difficulty

The riff requires clean, articulate chord playing with gentle dynamics and precise timing, but does not involve complex techniques or fast passages.
