Notes

Studio recording, 2013. Synyster Gates' signature Schecter guitar and Hellwin amp confirmed as the unanimous choice for the album's tone after a blind amp shootout. Rhythm/riff section, not solo. No evidence of additional guitars or amps for this part.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, consistent palm muting, precise alternate picking, and rhythmic accuracy at a moderate tempo, making it moderately challenging for intermediate players.
