Notes

Live performance, 'En Vivo' version, 2024. Gear inferred from Equipboard and typical Airbag live setups. No explicit pedalboard or amp photo for this specific song/section, but Les Paul Standard and Marshall stack are consistently cited for Airbag's heavy riff tones.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, accurate picking and tight palm muting to maintain clarity at high volume, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or complex chord voicings.
