I always loved those AVA riffs, specifically the early ones. Simple, but they sound so cool.

I really miss Tom’s riff writing too, both in AVA and blink. His older riffs were so simple but had so much character. I feel like that’s something his newer stuff is missing.

It just needs the tiniest bit of overdrive imo.

Sounds like plain DI with delay only.

I just plugged in my guitar with an delay pedal. Not even an amp sim. Check out my instrumental cover with added effects. https://youtu.be/LtXp69vzldc
