Notes

Studio recording for 'Anastasia' (2012, Apocalyptic Love album). Slash confirmed using a brand-new Marshall Silver Jubilee 2555 for the entire album except one track (not Anastasia). Guitar is his Kris Derrig Les Paul or a '58 Reissue with Slash Signature pickups. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for this riff section in the studio. Effects are minimal; wah is not used in the main riff (only in solo).

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, accurate picking with intricate left-hand work and tight palm muting, making it challenging for most intermediate players.
