From Buckcherry (1999). Buckcherry is the debut album by American rock band Buckcherry. It was released on April 6, 1999, by DreamWorks Records. "Lit Up", "For the Movies", "Dead Again", and "Check Your Head" were released as singles. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Buckcherry's other songs from Buckcherry, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
