Notes

Studio recording for 'Laid to Rest' (Ashes of the Wake, 2004). Mark Morton is confirmed to use Jackson Dominion guitars and Mesa/Boogie Mark IV amps for the album. Pickups are Seymour Duncan JB in bridge, '59 in neck. No evidence of additional pedals or effects for the riff section; tone is achieved primarily from amp and guitar. Settings below are estimated based on forum posts and typical Mark IV usage for Lamb of God in this era.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, precise alternate picking with aggressive palm muting and tight rhythm control, making it challenging for most players.
