Notes

Studio recording for 'Radical' album (2021), confirmed use of borrowed Marshall JMP and Synergy 2x12 cab. Guitar likely Balaguer Enigma AW Standard or ESP Eclipse (as per Andy Williams' typical studio arsenal). Fortin 33 pedal possibly used as boost. No explicit mention of other pedals or effects for this song/section. Settings estimated based on genre, amp, and era.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, accurate picking with aggressive palm muting and precise timing, typical of modern metalcore rhythm guitar. The complexity and speed push it to a hard difficulty.
