I'll play with ya anytime! :^) Use a clean pretty chorus for Riff-A and a dirty distortion for Riff-B. Notice how Riff-C is very similar to Alex's famous "Spirit Of Radio" riff. (Hence this song's title! ) There's a slight digital delay used for Riff-C. There may be a rhythm guitar under Riff-C in unison with the Bass playing the B5, B5, B5, B5, A5. But I think it's just a very punchy Bass. The wobble guitar can be produced using a tremolo pedal. However, I use a Boss Chorus CE-3 and switch to stereo mode II but actually run it in mono through one amp through output A to create the wobble effect.
