Notes

Studio recording, 2012 (Angel of Salvation album). Syu is seen using the ESP Crying Star-Phoenix in the official music video for 'Hunting For Your Dream'. Multiple sources confirm the Hughes & Kettner Coreblade as his main amp for this era. Pedalboard photos from this period show Boss SD-1 Super OverDrive, Boss DM-2W Delay, and ISP Decimator G-String II. No evidence of live-specific gear for the studio recording.

The solo features expert-level shred techniques at very high tempos, requiring advanced picking, sweep arpeggios, and legato, making it extremely challenging even for experienced players.
