Notes

Studio recording, 1998. Both Munky and Head used Ibanez 7-strings with DiMarzio PAF 7 pickups through Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifiers for the main riff. No evidence of live/touring substitutions for the studio version.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, percussive palm muting and precise rhythm on a seven-string guitar, demanding control of low-end and muting technique, but does not involve advanced lead or complex chord voicings.
