Notes
Studio recording, 2003 (Waking the Fallen sessions); no direct evidence of live rig for this section. No explicit photo/video evidence for bass gear, but Ampeg SVT and P-Bass are genre/era standards and match the album's production style.

Difficulty
The clean section requires solid pick technique and tight timing at a brisk tempo, but the line itself is not technically complex beyond rhythmic precision and consistency.
