Notes
Studio recording, 2019 (from the album 'Indiana'). The referenced tone is for the riff section. The Strymon Iridium was used as an amp/cab sim pedal in Chime (AC30) mode, not a physical amp. Origin Effects Cali76 compressor pedal was also used. No evidence of additional pedals or effects for the riff section.
