Notes

Studio recording, 2005. Jeff Loomis used his signature Schecter 7-string with EMG 707 pickups for the album 'The Godless Endeavor'. The Peavey 5150 II was his main amp for rhythm tracks. No direct evidence of additional pedals or effects for the riff section. Settings are estimated based on genre, era, and typical Loomis rig for this album.

Difficulty

The riff demands advanced picking speed, tight palm muting, and precise rhythm, making it very challenging for most players.
