No. 1602004·hard-rock·3 blocks
Dirty Little Thing
Velvet Revolver's snarling, STP-meets-GN'R rocker from 2004's Contraband, produced by Josh Abraham at NRG and Pulse. Slash summed the riff up in one sentence: 'I think I'm playing straight into Marshalls.' No pedals -- just a Les Paul's bridge humbucker slamming a cranked, Frank-Levi-modded JCM800 2203 (and his JCM 2555SL Silver Jubilee) into a V30 4x12. Standard E, dry and upfront.
