Notes

Studio recording, Appetite for Destruction (1987). Clean sections use the same Les Paul and Marshall Super Lead as the main riff, with amp gain set low for clean tone. Cabinet: Marshall 1960 4x12 with Celestion Vintage 30 speakers. Pickup selector likely in neck or middle position for warmth. All details refer to the original studio recording, not live.

Difficulty

The clean riff requires tight, syncopated picking and muting, precise timing to match the delay repeats, and clean articulation at a fast tempo, making it challenging for intermediate players.
