Notes

Studio recording, 2006 album session. Guitar and amp inferred from known gear used by Jesse Lacey during 'The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me' era. No direct studio photo for this song, but Jazzmaster and Twin Reverb are widely cited as his main studio rig for heavy sections. No evidence of alternate amp/guitar for this riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight rhythm playing with palm muting and dynamic control to maintain clarity under heavy effects. While not technically advanced, the layering and tone control require intermediate skill.
