Notes

Studio recording, 2010s+ era. Gear used is inferred from Rob Scallon's signature model and Guitar World interview referencing the Guitar Center session. No explicit amp model or pedalboard for 'Rain' studio version found; signature guitar and Fender combo amp are most likely for this era and style.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, syncopated picking and palm muting, as well as precise timing to synchronize with the delay effect, making it moderately challenging for intermediate players.
