Notes

Studio recording, 2004, One Day Remains album. Mark Tremonti is known to have used his signature PRS Tremonti guitar and Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier amps for the heavy rhythm tones on this album. No direct evidence of pedal use for the main riff section; distortion is primarily from the amp. No evidence of time-based or modulation effects in the riff section. Settings estimated based on genre, era, and typical Tremonti rig for this album.
