Notes

Live performance, Genting Arena, Birmingham, 4 February 2017. This was Black Sabbath's final show. Tony Iommi used his signature Jaydee SG and Laney LA100BL amp, as confirmed by multiple sources for the final tour. No evidence of additional effects or pedalboard use for the riff section; rig was kept simple for live authenticity.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, syncopated power chord playing with precise muting and dynamic control to capture the classic Sabbath feel, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or extreme speed.
