Notes

Studio recording, 2001. Mike Einziger is known to use his PRS CE 24 for clean sections on 'Wish You Were Here' and a Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier Trem-O-Verb combo amp for both clean and dirty tones in the studio. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the clean riff section. Settings are estimated based on typical Mesa clean tones and genre/era. Pedalboard is extensive, but only effects clearly audible and/or cited for clean sections are included.

Difficulty

The riff requires precise strumming and muting to maintain clarity and dynamics, but does not involve advanced techniques or fast tempo, making it accessible to intermediate players.
