Notes
Studio recording, 2010-2011 (Nightmare album). Synyster Gates' signature Schecter with Invader pickups. Clean tone likely from Bogner Uberschall or EVH 5150 III on clean channel, as per era and studio rig. No evidence of live gear or alternate guitars for clean riff section.

The clean riff requires accurate arpeggiation and smooth transitions, but is not technically demanding in terms of speed or advanced techniques.
