Playing tips
- Use your amp's built-in reverb set to a moderate level to recreate the spacious feel of the original tone.
- Play with a light touch to maintain the articulate, bell-like attack characteristic of the riff.
- Focus on fingerstyle or gentle picking to avoid heavy attack, preserving the clean sound.
