From Lost Highway (2007). Lost Highway is the tenth studio album by American rock band Bon Jovi, released on June 19, 2007, in the US through Island Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Bon Jovi's other songs from Lost Highway, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup.
