Notes

Studio recording, 2015-2016 era. Guitar choice is inferred from Alex G's typical studio use and forum discussions referencing the Bronco and Jazzmaster for this sound. Amp confirmed as Selmer Twin 30 from forum photo evidence, but settings are inferred from live rig and typical usage. No direct studio pedalboard photo for this song, but pedal/amp choices are consistent with era and genre.

Difficulty

The riff requires moderately precise picking and dynamic control to maintain the clean, twangy, and articulate indie tone, but does not involve advanced techniques or high speed.
