Notes

Live performance, Südbahnhof, Frankfurt, Germany, February 24, 1995. Buckley is visually confirmed using his 1983 Telecaster Toploader for this era and show. Amp is the blackface Fender Vibrolux, which was his main clean/edge-of-breakup live amp. No evidence of Mesa/Boogie or other amps for this song/section. No evidence of alternate guitars for this riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate technique due to its use of complex chord shapes, dynamic picking, and the need for clarity and articulation at a moderate tempo. The part is not fast but demands control and musicality.
