Notes

Live performance, post-2014 era. Adam Hann is documented using a Fender Jaguar and amp/cab simulators for 'Heart Out' live. No evidence of traditional tube amp on stage for this song section. Effects are primarily pedal-based. Studio version may differ, but this is for live.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, syncopated rhythm playing and clean articulation to cut through heavy chorus and reverb effects, but does not involve advanced techniques or high speed.
