Effects & Signal Chain

Notes

Studio recording, 2005. Used for distorted tones on 'Hypnotize' including the solo. Signal chain is very basic: guitar straight into amp, with minimal pedal use. The amp's second channel was modified for extra gain. No evidence of additional rack or pedal effects used in the studio for the solo section.

Difficulty

The solo requires intermediate to advanced picking technique, tight timing, and clean articulation at a moderate tempo, but does not involve extreme shred or advanced effects switching.
