Notes & Caveats
- No direct source for amp model or exact amp settings on the studio recording; settings estimated based on genre, era, and typical Les Paul + high-gain setup.
- Pedalboard is confirmed for the artist and era, but not explicitly tied to this exact song's studio recording—confidence reduced accordingly.
- No explicit pickup selector info, but bridge pickup is typical for heavy riff sections.
- No direct evidence of amp effects; all modulation and delay effects are from pedals per Equipboard and interviews.
- No evidence of additional gain/boost pedals; distortion is likely from amp and/or Les Paul humbuckers.
- No evidence of effects loop use.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. Çilekeş's 'Kendimden Geriye' riff section features a modern Turkish alternative/nu-metal tone: tight, saturated distortion with a focused midrange, not overly scooped, and a controlled low end. The production is dry and punchy, with minimal reverb, and the amp settings reflect a high-gain but articulate sound typical of early 2000s alt/nu-metal influences.
