Studio recording for 'Otsego Placebo' (2020, Project Regeneration Vol. 1). Gear confirmed for Wayne Static's signature tone, which is consistent with the album era. No evidence of additional pedals or effects for the riff section; amp distortion is primary. Settings estimated based on amp model, genre, and era due to lack of explicit studio knob settings.
