Notes

Studio recording, 2024 album 'You Won't Go Before You're Supposed To'. Isaac Hale is strict about using passive pickups. Main rhythm tone for 'Blinding Faith' riff tracked with Ibanez Iceman and Bogner Überschall. Peavey 5150/6505 and Mesa Dual Rectifier may be used for layering. Settings and pedal chain reflect studio, not live, use.

Difficulty

The riff requires advanced right-hand control for tight, fast palm muting, precise timing for syncopated rhythms, and the ability to manage feedback and noise at high gain, making it challenging for most players.
