Notes & Caveats
- No direct source confirms exact guitar, pickups, amp, or pedal models for this song's riff section.
- All gear and settings are estimated based on genre (modern metal), era (2010s+), and references to 7-string/extended range guitars.
- No explicit mention of pedals or effects in any source; effects inferred from genre norms.
- No amp model or settings found; values estimated for modern metal rhythm tone.
- No evidence of live vs studio differences; assuming studio recording.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. The riff section of 'BETTER HELL (thicc boi)' has a modern, saturated high-gain tone with tight low end, balanced mids, and a slightly aggressive top end, typical of contemporary metal/alt-rock. The reverb is minimal for punch, and the presence is boosted for clarity in a dense mix.
