Notes
Studio recording for 'Sleep's Holy Mountain' (1992/1993). No evidence of live or alternate gear for the clean section. Clean tone is rare in Sleep but present in the intro/verse of 'Dragonaut'.

Difficulty
The clean riff is straightforward but requires careful muting and dynamic control to keep the tone clean and resonant in a low tuning.
