Evidence / Sources
Tone character: saturated, articulate, modern, tight, polished, aggressive, melodic, controlled
The Nightmare album is well documented for Synyster Gates' Schecter guitar family, but publicly available song-specific amp evidence is weaker than the City of Evil material. This seed stays conservative instead of copying later/live rigs as studio fact.

Low ambience for the rhythm foundation; lead sections use delay/boost treatment, but exact title-track pedal switching is not securely documented.
