Recording notes

From Objection Overruled (1993). Objection Overruled is the ninth studio album by German heavy metal band Accept, released in 1993. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Flying V through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Accept's other songs from Objection Overruled, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
