Notes

Studio recording, 2018-2019 (Dogrel album sessions). Gear inferred from Premier Guitar Rig Rundown and typical band setup for this era. No direct confirmation for this exact song, but Jazzmaster and Deluxe Reverb are the most likely pairing for the main riff section.

Difficulty

The riff is based on simple chord shapes and gentle picking, but requires careful timing and dynamic control to maintain clarity and the lush, modulated sound.
