Studio recording, 2023, album 'Take Me Back To Eden'. Guitarist IV is known to use the Jackson Monarkh with Bare Knuckle Ragnarok pickups for heavy riff sections. Amp and cab are modeled in the Quad Cortex, not physical amps. No evidence of live rig or alternate guitars for this specific riff section.
