Notes

Live performance, 2001-2005 era. No direct source confirms the exact guitar/amp for this specific recording, but multiple forum and gearboard discussions, plus genre/era context, strongly indicate a Stratocaster into a Fender tube amp. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the riff/distorted section.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate skill due to its fast, syncopated rhythm, percussive attack, and dynamic control between clean and crunchy playing.
