Notes & Caveats
- No official or credible sources specify the guitar, amp, or pedal models/settings for this song's riff section.
- All settings and gear are estimated based on the audio characteristics, genre, and era.

- No evidence of live guitar performance for this song; all information is based on the studio track.
- No evidence of modulation, delay, or wah effects in the riff section; only mild reverb is audible.
- Pedal and amp models are unknown; settings are inferred from typical neo-soul/alternative R&B tones.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. The riff in 'Holy Ghost' features a warm, slightly gritty clean tone with prominent mids and a touch of ambience, typical of vintage-inspired soul/rock production. The gain is set just at the edge of breakup, with mids pushed for body, bass for warmth, and moderate treble/presence to avoid harshness; reverb is subtle, matching the song's organic vibe.
