Notes & Caveats
- No direct source confirms the exact amp model or settings for this specific song's riff section; settings estimated based on genre, era, and typical use of Line 6 POD X3 Live for high-gain modern rock tones.
- No explicit mention of pickup selector position; bridge pickup inferred from aggressive, cutting riff tone.
- No pedalboard photo or studio notes for this specific recording; effects chain inferred from Equipboard and audible characteristics.
- No numeric amp settings found; values estimated based on typical modern rock amp modeling practices.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. Catupecu Machu's riff tone on this track is aggressive, saturated, and mid-forward, typical of early 2000s Argentine alt-rock. The gain is high but not extreme, with tight low end, pronounced mids, and enough treble/presence to cut through, while reverb is minimal for a punchy, in-your-face sound.
