Notes & Caveats
- No direct studio session documentation for exact amp knob settings; values estimated based on typical Marshall Bluesbreaker settings for heavy blues-rock and the song's audible tone.
- Pedal models inferred from Equipboard and genre; no photo/video of exact pedalboard for this recording.
- Guitar model confirmed for era and artist, but possible occasional use of other guitars (e.g., Gretsch Duo Jet) in live settings.
- Pickup position inferred from tone and genre; bridge pickup is standard for this riff style.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. Reignwolf's 'Are You Satisfied?' riff features a raw, crunchy, mid-forward tone typical of his live setup (often a cranked Supro or Fender combo with minimal pedals), with strong mids, solid bass, and restrained treble/presence for thickness and bite. The tone is dry and in-your-face, so reverb is minimal or off.
