Notes

Studio recording for 'Blood' (2018, album 'Ember'). Guitar World confirms ESP LTD BB-600 Baritone and Marshall JCM900 were used for the album. No evidence of alternate guitars/amps for the riff section. Effects processing likely via Fractal Axe-Fx II XL for some tones, but main riff is amp-driven.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, aggressive palm muting and precise rhythm in a drop tuning on a baritone guitar, demanding good right-hand technique and timing for clarity and punch.
