Notes

Studio recording, 2010s era. Gear inferred from Premier Guitar rig rundown for Whiskey Myers, matching the likely studio setup for this single. No explicit confirmation for this exact song, but Telecaster and Fender Princeton/Tweed Deluxe are the core rhythm setup for John Jeffers and Cody Tate. No evidence of pedal use for the riff section; pedalboard details in sources are for live/touring and not tied to this recording.

Difficulty

The riff section uses open chords and straightforward rhythm, but requires good dynamic control and clean articulation to capture the song's country-rock feel.
