Notes

Studio recording, 2021 (Take Me Back to Eden era). Clean tones likely processed through Quad Cortex with Revv Generator amp/cab sim and digital effects. No direct evidence of alternate guitars or amps for clean section; inferred from multiple sources discussing IV's studio rig for this album.

Difficulty

The clean riff requires accurate chord changes, dynamic control for atmospheric swells, and clean technique to maintain clarity with effects. Extended-range guitar adds technical challenge.
