From Wonder What's Next (2002). A heavy, brooding alternative-metal track with a low, grinding riff. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a PRS Custom 24 through a Mesa Boogie Mark IV stands in. Use the bridge pickup and set the amp for a tight, high-gain tone. Tuning isn't documented here.
