Notes

Studio recording, 2015 (Ours Is Chrome era). Guitarist Taylor Madison is confirmed to use this Jazzmaster and Hiwatt Custom 100 for Superheaven's signature riff tones. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for this specific song/section.

Difficulty

The riff is moderately challenging due to its aggressive attack, palm muting, and the need for tight rhythm under heavy fuzz, but does not require advanced lead or technical skills.
