Notes

Studio recording, 2015 ('Meliora' album). Multiple amps blended in studio: at least two Marshall Plexis, one JCM800, at least one Orange, and some Fender heads. Guitar is confirmed as Gibson RD Artist with Seymour Duncan humbuckers. Settings estimated based on genre, era, and typical Ghost studio approach. No evidence of live/touring substitutions for this recording.

Difficulty

The riff requires precise palm muting, fast alternate picking, and dynamic control to maintain clarity and punch, making it moderately challenging for intermediate players.
