Notes

Studio recording, 2012-2013. Guitar and amp confirmed as part of Taylor York's studio setup for the self-titled album era. No explicit confirmation for this exact song/section, but these are the most likely clean setup based on available interviews and typical Paramore studio practices for clean tones.

Difficulty

The riff requires precise octave playing and tight timing to maintain clarity in a clean context, but does not involve advanced techniques or high speed.
