Notes
Studio recording, 2004. Billie Joe Armstrong tracked American Idiot rhythm guitars using his 'Floyd' Les Paul Junior with a Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge, into a blend of a Marshall Plexi (Dookie Mod) and a Park 75 head. No evidence of pedals or effects for the riff section; distortion is amp-based. Settings estimated based on era, genre, and amp type.
