From Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka (1998). Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka is the debut studio album by American technical death metal band Nile. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson Pro Series Soloist SL2 through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the rig we use for Nile's other songs from Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop A (A E A D F♯ B).
