Studio recording, 2002-2003. Barry Stock used the Diezel VH4 Channel 3 for the main heavy tones on the debut album, layered with a Marshall Major. Guitar World interview confirms this for the album era. No evidence of live rig or other amps for the studio solo section.

The solo requires solid alternate picking, controlled bends, and vibrato, but does not feature advanced shred techniques or complex timing, making it accessible to intermediate players.
