Notes

Studio recording, 2006 (Carnavas album). Gear inferred from era-specific interviews, live photos, and forum discussions focused on the 'Lazy Eye' recording period. No direct studio documentation, but multiple sources confirm Sheraton II and DeVille as core rig for this album.

Difficulty

The riff is rhythmically straightforward but requires tight timing and control of a heavily saturated fuzz tone, as well as manipulation of guitar tone/volume for the signature sound.
