Notes

Studio recording, 2004 (Disclaimer II version with Amy Lee). All evidence points to PRS Custom 24 as Shaun Morgan's main guitar for clean and dirty parts on this track. Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier is the primary amp for Seether's studio tones in this era. No evidence of acoustic guitar on the main riff in the 'feat. Amy Lee' version; clean electric is used.

Difficulty

The riff requires clean fingerpicking and dynamic control, but uses basic chord shapes and moderate tempo, making it accessible to intermediate players.
