Notes

Studio recording, 2003; settings and gear based on era and album. No evidence of live rig or alternate guitars for this riff section. Synyster Gates played the main riff with his signature Schecter and high-output Invader pickup into a Mesa Dual Rectifier, as confirmed by multiple interviews and era-specific gear rundowns.

Difficulty

The riff section of 'Remenissions' is challenging due to its fast tempo, aggressive palm muting, and tight alternate picking, requiring precise rhythm and left-right hand coordination typical of early 2000s metalcore.
