From Revolutionary (2010). Revolutionary is a 2010 studio album by 9mm Parabellum Bullet. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD Viper-1000 through a Marshall JCM2000 TSL100, the nearest rig we use for 9mm Parabellum Bullet's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
