Original Recording
Studio recording for 'Afterlife' solo, 2007 (Avenged Sevenfold self-titled album). The Schecter Hellwin was not released until years later and is not relevant for this era. The Bogner Uberschall is confirmed by multiple sources as the studio amp for this album. Guitar is the Synyster Gates Custom with Invader pickups, not the Joker Special or Ibanez S470. No evidence of alternate guitars for the solo section.
