Recording Notes

• The guitar sound was created using a combination of overdrive and distortion pedals to achieve the desired level of saturation and sustain.
• Multiple takes were likely layered to create a thick, full rhythm guitar track.
• The Marshall amp provided the foundation for the tone, with the pedals shaping the character and adding aggression.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a Les Paul style guitar with humbucker pickups.
• Use a Marshall-style amp with a good amount of gain.
• Experiment with overdrive and distortion pedals to find the sweet spot for the level of distortion. MXR Distortion+ and Fender Blender are good choices.
• Use a Shure SM57 or similar dynamic microphone close to the speaker.
• Double track the guitar parts for added thickness.
