Notes & Caveats
- No direct studio session photos or interviews confirm the exact pedalboard or amp settings for 'Coraline' riff section; all gear and settings are inferred from Equipboard and typical usage for this era.
- No specific numeric amp settings found; values estimated based on Marshall JMP 1987X typical settings for classic rock crunch and the genre/era.
- No explicit mention of pedals or effects for the riff section; overdrive likely from amp and/or Klon Centaur, but not confirmed for this specific recording.
- No evidence of time-based or modulation effects in the riff section; reverb assumed to be amp spring reverb at a low setting.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. Thomas Raggi typically uses a crunchy, mid-forward British rock tone (often Marshall-style amps) with moderate gain, strong mids, and balanced bass/treble for Måneskin's riff sections. The 'CORALINE' riff is articulate and punchy, with subtle ambience, matching these settings.
