Notes

Studio recording, 2019 ('The Great War' album). Chris Rörland and Tommy Johansson both used Kemper Profilers for amp tones. Guitar confirmed from Equipboard and album gear lists. Pickup model not explicitly confirmed for this song, but RG752AHM stock is likely. No evidence of pedal use for main riff; high-gain amp tone is standard for Sabaton rhythm. No evidence of live-specific gear for studio recording.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, accurate picking and tight palm muting to maintain clarity and aggression at high speed. While not technically extreme, the tempo and precision needed for modern metal rhythm make it moderately challenging.
