Tone Character
Recorded tone character
Gain character
Raw, fast, abrasive JCM800 distortion with clear pick attack.
Bass
Controlled so the rapid riff remains distinct.
Mids
Present enough to preserve grind and attack.
Treble
Aggressive and bright.
Brightness / presence
High, cutting presence characteristic of the record.
Compression
Tight loud-amp compression, not overly smooth.
Effects
Main rhythm is essentially dry and amp-driven.
Evidence / Sources
Tone character: raw, cutting, fast, dry, abrasive, tight, thrash
Targets the composite main rhythm character rather than assigning the whole track to only King or Hanneman; both used closely related B.C. Rich/DiMarzio/Marshall setups on Reign in Blood.
