Notes

Studio recording, 1992 (Images and Words album). Gear confirmed for era and album by multiple sources, but exact pickup model was pre-signature. No evidence of live/tour gear being used for studio. Riff section is rhythm, not solo.

Difficulty

The riff requires clean, articulate playing with subtle dynamic control and accurate timing, but does not involve advanced techniques or fast passages.
