Notes

Studio recording, 2005. No direct evidence for clean amp model/settings for 'Nemesis' clean section, but Peavey 5150 II was main amp for the album. Clean sections likely used neck pickup or both pickups, with amp gain set very low and possible chorus/reverb added in post or via pedal. No evidence of live-specific clean rig for this song.

Difficulty

The clean riff requires accurate chord changes and timing, with some subtlety in picking dynamics and a smooth transition to the heavy section, but does not involve advanced techniques.
