Notes

Live performance at Donington 1994. Dimebag Darrell used his signature Dean ML with a Bill Lawrence L-500XL in the bridge and a Randall RG100ES solid state amp for Pantera's live shows in the early 1990s. No evidence of Zakk Wylde's gear being used for this 1994 performance; all sources and era confirm Dimebag's classic rig.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, aggressive picking, tight palm muting, and precise rhythm control to maintain clarity and articulation at high speed with high gain.
