From Ultimando (2003). Ultimando is the sixth studio album by the Argentine metal band Almafuerte, released in 2003 by Dejesu Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the nearest rig we use for Almafuerte's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
