Notes
Studio recording for 'Warning Device' (2008). Guitarist Kody Templeman used his custom Jason Ingrodi offset with a humbucker in the bridge. The Orange TH100 was his main amp for this era. No evidence of pedals used for the riff section; chorus pedal is only used for solos. Studio context, not live.
Tone Character(10)
tight and punchyaggressive and saturatedarticulate powerchord attackmid-heavy voicingcrisp, biting top endfull-bodied low endminimal effects, dry soundfast palm-muted chugsclassic pop-punk rhythm crunchslight natural amp compression
Difficulty
The riff is fast and requires tight, consistent downstroke strumming and palm muting, but uses simple powerchords and straightforward rhythm, making it accessible for most players with basic punk technique.
