OK Computer Acoustic Unease — Dry Strum & Delayed Coda
The central guitar is Yorke's dry acoustic accompaniment to the piano, while Ed O'Brien supplies the increasingly unstable electric texture near the ending. The chains below use the band's documented live recreation: Gibson B-25 acoustic, Rickenbacker 360, distortion, digital delay and Fender/Vox amplification. The precise studio acoustic, effect units and knob positions remain uncertain, so settings are approximated.

Notes
Keep the acoustic dry and rhythmically steady beneath the piano. Allow the electric coda to become progressively less stable by increasing delay feedback and distortion.
