From BE NOT AFRAID (2026). Polyphia's two guitarists split lead and rhythm duties, and no source says which guitar or amp is on this track, so Scott LePage's signature Ibanez into a modeled amp stands in. The album, released on 23 October 2026, leans on metal and prog (Premier Guitar). Aim for a tight, mid-focused high-gain tone on the bridge pickup. Tuning isn't documented here.
