Notes
Studio recording, 2002-2003. Stef Carpenter used the Ibanez RG7620 7-string for the self-titled album, with the Marshall JMP-1 preamp for clean tones. Clean intro/verse sections are double-tracked with a DI (direct input) and a distant mic on the JMP-1 rig. Chorus effect is present in the FX loop for clean parts.

Difficulty
The clean riff requires precise picking and dynamic control to maintain clarity and articulation on a 7-string guitar, but does not involve advanced techniques or complex chord voicings.
