Notes

Studio recording for Scars on Broadway's 'Talkin Shit' (self-titled album, 2008). No dirt pedals; all drive from amp. Friedman modded Marshall JMP100 is the main amp for heavy tones. Guitar is the 1962 Gibson Les Paul SG Standard. Effects are minimal, with only occasional modulation/delay for texture. Settings estimated based on typical usage and era; no explicit knob values found for this song.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, aggressive palm muting and precise rhythm playing at a moderate tempo, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or complex chord voicings.
