Notes

Studio recording, 2023. Periphery are known to use amp modeling (Fractal Axe-FX, Kemper) for cleans in the studio. Clean sections are lush and ambient, with heavy use of modulation and reverb. Guitar and pickup model inferred from artist's known studio gear for this album era; amp model and effects chain based on direct source and genre/era conventions.

Difficulty

The clean riff requires intermediate skill due to its complex chord shapes, precise timing to sync with delay/modulation, and the need for very clean, noise-free playing.
