Notes
Studio recording, 2010 album 'Come Around Sundown'. Gear confirmed for era and band member (Caleb Followill), but not explicitly tied to this specific song in studio. No evidence of alternate guitar/amp for riff section. No evidence of alternate pickup wiring or modifications.

The riff requires tight timing and dynamic control to keep the open chords clear with a slightly gritty tone, but does not involve advanced techniques or fast passages.
