Recording notes

From Pis (2010). Pis is a 2010 studio album by Athena. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Player Telecaster through a Marshall JCM900 4100 Dual Reverb, the nearest rig we use for Athena's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
