Add a fuzz pedal for the song’s thick, glam-fuzz riff.
Why it sounds like that
The riff is heavy and fuzz-infused, built on the minor pentatonic, and it moves with pent-up urgency. Alex Turner had a Gretsch G6128T Duo Jet on the track, while Jamie Cook played a Gibson SG. The band often halts the guitars for stretches of bass and vocal, so the main line hits harder when it returns, and the madcap solo arrives near the end of the track.
- Build the riff on the minor pentatonic.
- Run the riff through a fuzz-infused tone.
