From Everest (2025). A hard-rock track led by a heavy, riff-driven guitar part. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through a Friedman BE-100 stands in. Set the amp at a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Tuning isn't documented here.
