Notes

No direct source confirms the exact guitar, pickups, or amp for the clean riff section of 'Entombed' by Deftones. Stephen Carpenter is known to use ESP 7-strings with active pickups and digital amp modeling (Fractal Axe-Fx) in the studio for the 2010s era. This is an estimate based on genre, era, and artist's known preferences. Studio recording, 2012 (Koi No Yokan album).

Difficulty

The clean riff requires accurate chord voicings and soft dynamics to maintain clarity with ambient effects, but does not involve advanced techniques or fast tempo.
