Notes

Studio recording for 'Obsolete' (1998). Dino Cazares used an Ibanez Universe 7-string with DiMarzio Blaze pickups into a Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier. No evidence of pedals or effects used for the main riff section; tone is extremely tight and dry. Settings estimated based on genre, era, and typical Rectifier usage for Fear Factory in this period.

Difficulty

The riff requires advanced right-hand precision, fast palm muting, and tight synchronization with drums, making it challenging for most players.
