No amp model is confirmed for the studio recording. No evidence of pedal use for 'Gnaw' riff section in studio; live, an Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer is sometimes used for other songs, but not confirmed for 'Gnaw'. Recording year: 2017 (album 'Rocket').

Difficulty

The riff is straightforward but requires clean, articulate picking and rhythmic consistency. No advanced techniques or fast passages, but clarity and timing are essential.
