Notes
Studio recording, 1992-1993 era. Gear confirmed for this period and song by multiple sources. Pedalboard was relatively simple compared to later rigs. All info is for the original studio recording, not live versions.

The riff requires intermediate skill due to its syncopated rhythm, precise muting, and dynamic control to maintain clarity and articulation with a touch-sensitive, edge-of-breakup tone.
