Notes

Studio recording, original release 1990-1991, USSR/Russia. No direct evidence of exact gear, but period-correct and genre-typical for Russian rock of the era. Live footage and covers often use Precision or similar passive basses.

Difficulty

The part is rhythmically straightforward but requires a strong, consistent pick attack to maintain the aggressive, overdriven tone and tight groove with the band.
