Notes
Studio recording for 'The Sick, The Dying... And The Dead!' (2022). Dave Mustaine used his signature Gibson Flying V EXP with Seymour Duncan Thrash Factor pickups. Both Mustaine and Kiko Loureiro used Neural DSP Quad Cortex units for amp modeling in the studio, with Mustaine favoring Marshall amp models. No evidence of additional pedals for the riff section; tone is high-gain, tight, and modern. Settings estimated based on modern Megadeth studio practices and genre.
