From Illuminaudio (2010). Illuminaudio is the third studio album by American post-hardcore band Chiodos. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Studio through a Marshall JCM2000 DSL100, the rig we use for Chiodos' other songs from Illuminaudio, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop D.
