Notes
Studio recording for 'Desert Rambler' (2020, Inlet album). Guitar and amp confirmed for album sessions, not just live. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the riff section. No explicit pedalboard photo for this track, but genre and band history suggest fuzz/distortion pedal use.

Difficulty
The riff requires tight, aggressive picking and palm muting in a low tuning, with clarity in a dense, high-gain mix. Not technically virtuosic, but challenging to execute cleanly and with the right feel.
