Notes
Studio recording for 'As Daylight Dies' (2006). Guitar and pickup confirmed for this album era. Amp inferred from band’s typical studio rig for clean and heavy tones. No evidence of live rig or alternate guitars for clean section.

Difficulty
The clean riff requires precise alternate picking and clear articulation, with moderate tempo and syncopation. The challenge is maintaining clarity and timing without gain to mask mistakes.
