Notes

Studio recording for 'Waking the Fallen' (2003). Zacky Vengeance used a Schecter S-1 with stock high-output humbuckers into a Marshall JVM210H head. No evidence of additional pedals or effects in the riff section; Tube Screamer/boost is sometimes used live but not confirmed for this studio recording. Pickup position: bridge.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, aggressive palm muting with tight synchronization and precise articulation, typical of early 2000s metalcore rhythm work.
