Notes

Studio recording, 2006-2007 era (Sueño Stereo/Me Verás Volver period). No direct evidence for 'Disco Eterno' session, but ES-335 and Bogner Shiva are strongly associated with Cerati's clean tones in this era. No evidence of live-specific gear for the clean riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires clean, syncopated picking and precise timing to maintain clarity with modulation effects, but does not involve advanced techniques or high speed.
