Notes

Studio recording, 2002. Guitar and amp confirmed for Disclaimer album era. Clean tone section (intro/verse) uses amp clean channel; no evidence of pedal-based distortion or heavy effects. Shaun Morgan is known for minimal pedal use, relying on amp tones. No explicit mention of pickup selector for clean part, but neck or neck+middle is typical for warm cleans.

Difficulty

The clean riff is straightforward, requiring basic chord shapes and clean picking, but demands good dynamic control and timing for a polished studio sound.
