Playing tips

  • Use your amp's built-in reverb set to a moderate level to recreate the spacious feel of the original tone.
  • Strum dynamically to achieve the percussive and chimey clean sound characteristic of the original recording.
  • Experiment with picking lightly for clear note separation, especially in the riff.
