Notes

Studio recording, 2002 (Up the Bracket album). All evidence points to the use of an Epiphone Coronet with P-90 pickup into a Vox AC30 for the main riff section. No evidence of pedals or additional effects in the studio recording; amp distortion used. Settings inferred from user descriptions and typical Vox AC30 use for this genre/era.

Difficulty

The riff requires energetic, precise strumming and tight chord changes at a brisk tempo, but does not involve advanced techniques or complex fingerings.
