Notes

Studio recording, 1994 for 'Sixteen Stone (Remastered)'. Gavin Rossdale is confirmed to have used a Fender Jazzmaster with Lollar pickups and a Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier Trem-O-Verb for the main riff on 'Comedown (Remastered)'. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for this section. Pedal use is inferred from multiple sources and the audible fuzz in the riff.

fuzzy and saturatedthick and compressedtight and percussive attackaggressive, crunchy rhythmpunchy and articulatemidrange-forwardfull-bodiedslightly scooped highswarm but not muddystudio-layered fullness

Difficulty

The riff is moderately challenging due to its syncopated rhythm, need for tight palm muting, and the difficulty of keeping articulation with a saturated fuzz tone. However, it does not require advanced lead techniques or complex chord voicings.
