Do I Wanna Know?
The hypnotic riff of Do I Wanna Know? is built on a dark, fuzzy tone with heavy reverb. Turner's Jazzmaster-style guitar through a Vox AC30 with fuzz creates a thick, murky groove that sits low in the mix. The riff uses a slow, deliberate picking style with the notes slightly muted for a percussive, almost drum-like quality.
