Listen to "You Got To Unwind" on
Triptych by The Bevis Frond. The guitar riff, which you can hear most clearly starting at 0:09 and lasting until he starts singing, reminds me of something and I can't for the life of me figure out what. Not just the tune of it (you can hear that in lots of Byrds-influenced guitar riffs like that in Allison Road by the Gin Blossoms) - but it's the sound that I'm looking for. Some other song that I remember vaguely has a guitar riff that has that same sound effect in it. For reference, I was born in '68 so my formative years were late 70s and early 80s so I suspect that's where it's from. But I listen to a wide variety of stuff so it might be sometime else.
