Notes

Studio recording, 2022-2023 era. Guitar tech and multiple sources confirm use of Jackson 8-string with Bare Knuckle Ragnarok bridge pickup for 'The Summoning' heavy sections. Amp is a Quad Cortex modeler, with community consensus on Archetype Gojira or Soldano SLO-100 crunch/lead channel for high-gain tones. Pedalboard includes REVV G3 Distortion and Electro-Harmonix POG3, but only G3 is relevant for heavy solo tone.

Difficulty

The solo requires advanced picking accuracy, tight palm muting, and control over extended low strings, making it challenging for most guitarists.
