Notes

Studio recording for 'Black Bubblegum' (2007, Ire Works). Ben Weinman used the Mark V for its versatility and midrange focus. The Way Huge Swollen Pickle fuzz was stacked on the amp's clean channel for the riff tone. Pickup and amp models confirmed for this era and album. No evidence of live/touring substitutions for the studio recording.

aggressive and chaotictight and percussivegnarly, thick fuzz saturationbright and articulate attackfocused midrange punchdense but clear note separationobnoxious, in-your-facehigh-gain saturationarticulate under complex rhythmsmean, punchy riff tone

Difficulty

The riff requires advanced rhythmic precision, tight palm muting, and fast alternate picking while maintaining clarity under high-gain fuzz. The syncopation and technical control needed make it challenging for most players.
