Playing tips
- Use your amp's built-in delay set to a moderate level to recreate the rhythmic repeats of the original tone.
- Focus on tight palm muting to achieve the percussive attack characteristic of the riff.
- Experiment with the bridge pickup to capture the aggressive bite and sustain needed for the riff.
