Notes

Studio recording for 'Fallen' (2003). Rhythm guitars tracked with Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier Trem-o-Verb and Marshall amps, A/B'd for stereo width. No evidence of pedal use for distortion; all gain from amp. Guitar is PRS McCarty with humbuckers, as confirmed by Equipboard and session info. Settings are for studio, not live.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight palm muting and precise rhythm, but uses standard power chords and moderate tempo, making it accessible to intermediate players.
