Notes
Studio recording, 2004. Guitar and amp confirmed for the era and band member (J.T. Woodruff) but not explicitly tied to the studio session for this song. No evidence of pedals or effects used in the riff section; live rig matches likely studio setup.

Difficulty
The riff requires tight palm muting, fast alternate picking, and precise power chord changes, but does not involve advanced techniques or complex timing.
