Notes

No direct information on Mira's exact gear for this cover. MBV's original recording used a hybrid Fender guitar (Strat neck, Jaguar body, EMG pickups) and a combination of Marshall JCM800 and Fender Sidekick transistor amps. Mira's cover likely emulates this setup but no confirmation. Studio context assumed for cover. Year: 2000s (Mira's active period).

Difficulty

The riff requires consistent strumming and control over dynamics to maintain the shoegaze wall-of-sound effect, but does not involve advanced technical challenges.
