Notes

Studio recording for 'Want You Bad' (2000, Conspiracy of One). Noodles was known to use Ibanez RG guitars with high-output humbuckers and Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier amps for heavy riff sections in this era. No direct source confirms the exact serial/model for this song, but this is consistent with all available interviews and era-specific gear photos.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, accurate power chord changes and tight palm muting at a high tempo, but uses straightforward punk rhythm techniques without advanced lead or complex chord voicings.
