From Goodbye to the Gallows (2007). Goodbye to the Gallows is the debut full-length studio album by Emmure, released through Victory Records in the UK on March 5, 2007, and in the US on March 6. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, a saturated death-metal pairing, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop A♯ (A♯ F A♯ D♯ G C).
