Recording Notes
- The guitar was likely recorded with a close-miked amp in a well-treated studio environment.
- The direct amp signal was captured without additional effects during recording to maintain clarity and punch.
- Multiple takes were likely recorded and layered to create a full, thick rhythm guitar track.
Recreation Tips
- Use a Gibson SG with moderate output pickups.
- Set the Marshall JTM45 to a moderate gain setting, enough to get a good crunch without excessive distortion.
- Place a Shure SM57 close to the speaker cone, slightly off-axis.
- Double-track the guitar parts to thicken the sound.
