Recording notes

From Even in Arcadia (2025). The title track of the anonymous band's 2025 album, with heavy, syncopated guitar riffs alternating with clean, ambient passages. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a Jackson Pro Series Misha Mansoor Juggernaut HT7 through a Neural DSP Quad Cortex stands in. Set the amp at a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Tuning isn't documented here.
