From Vengeance Falls (2013). Modern metal with a tight, groove-driven low end. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Peavey 6505+ stands in. Use the bridge pickup and set the amp for a tight, high-gain tone. Tuning isn't documented here.
