Notes

Studio recording, 2008. The main riff is played on an Ovation Custom Legend 1769 acoustic-electric, as seen in the official music video and confirmed by Equipboard. The amp used for the album was the Bogner Uberschall, as documented for the self-titled album sessions. No evidence of electric guitar for the main riff section; electric used for fills/solo only.

Difficulty

The main riff requires accurate arpeggiated picking and smooth chord changes on an acoustic-electric, but does not involve advanced techniques or high speed.
