Notes
Studio recording for 'Doused' (2012, Oshin album). Guitar confirmed as Jazzmaster in interviews. Amp confirmed as Roland JC-120 for Oshin era; later moved to Hiwatt/Hiwatt-style amps for live, but JC-120 is the most likely studio amp for this track. Pedals confirmed from interviews and pedalboard photos, but exact settings not given.

The riff requires fast, consistent alternate picking and precise muting to maintain clarity through heavy modulation and reverb effects, as well as tight synchronization with the second guitar part.
