Notes

No direct evidence of specific guitar, pickups, or amp used on the studio recording of 'A Match Into Water' riff section by Pierce The Veil. Equipboard lists only power supplies and tuners for the album era, and TikTok/Reddit sources focus on playing technique, not gear. No official rig rundown or studio session details found. Likely studio recording, 2012 (Collide With The Sky album).

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate skill due to its tight palm muting, fast and accurate chord changes, and the need for consistent pick attack to maintain articulation and aggression.
