From Slave to the Scalpel (2021). Slave to the Scalpel is a studio album by 200 Stab Wounds. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Peavey 6505+, the nearest rig we use for 200 Stab Wounds' other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup.
