Notes
Studio recording, 2012 (¡Uno! album). Billie Joe's 'Blue' Telecaster with a Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge was used for the main riff. Amp is a modded Marshall Plexi Super Lead, consistent with Green Day's studio rig for this era. No evidence of pedals in the main riff section; distortion comes from amp gain. No chorus, delay, or modulation audible in the riff. Minimal or no reverb.
