Notes
Studio recording, 2024. Guitar is run directly into a Tascam 424 MK1 Portastudio for preamp coloration and overdrive, not a traditional amp. Baritone tuning. Effects are primarily from pedals and/or post-processing, not amp. No evidence of live amp use for this recording.

Difficulty
The riff requires intermediate technique due to baritone tuning, dynamic fingerstyle, and precise articulation through heavy modulation and reverb effects. The layering of effects and DI preamp breakup adds complexity to achieving the correct feel and clarity.
