Notes
Studio recording, ca. 2002. Guitarist Deron Miller is seen using a Mesa/Boogie 4x12 and Les Paul in live videos from the era. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for this specific riff section. Settings estimated based on typical Dual Rectifier metal tones and era.

The riff requires intermediate skill due to its syncopated rhythm, tight palm muting, and the need to maintain clarity with octave and modulation effects in a high-gain setting.
