Notes

Studio recording, 2016. Used for the riff section of 'Insane' by Korn. The Ibanez K7 with DiMarzio PAF 7 pickups into a Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier was the core rhythm setup for Korn's heavy tones in this era. No evidence of live-specific substitutions or alternate guitars/amps for this song's riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires precise palm muting and rhythmic accuracy on a 7-string guitar with high gain, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or extreme speed.
