Recording notes

From Age of the Joker (2011). Age of the Joker is the ninth studio album by the German power metal band Edguy, released on 26 August 2011 by Nuclear Blast. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Explorer through a Marshall JVM410H, the rig we use for Edguy's other songs from Age of the Joker, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
