Lonely Boy
Lonely Boy's riff is a raw, fat, garage-rock tone built on simplicity: a Les Paul Junior with a single P-90 pickup into a cranked small amp. The tone is warm, slightly fuzzy, and dripping with character from the amp's natural breakup. No fancy effects -- just a guitar, a cable, and a loud amp doing what they do best.
