Studio recording, 1994 for 'Sixteen Stone (Remastered)'. Gavin Rossdale is confirmed to have used a Fender Jazzmaster with Lollar pickups and a Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier Trem-O-Verb for the main riff on 'Comedown (Remastered)'. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for this section. Pedal use is inferred from multiple sources and the audible fuzz in the riff.
