Notes
Studio recording for 'Ha Ha You're Dead' (2002, Shenanigans sessions). Billie Joe Armstrong is known for using his Les Paul Junior with a P-90 pickup into a cranked Marshall Plexi for Green Day's punk recordings in this era. No evidence of pedal use for the main riff; tone is amp-driven. No studio documentation or pedalboard photos for this specific song, but this setup is confirmed for the era and genre.
