From Historian Suurmiehiä (1990). Historian Suurmiehiä is a 1990 studio album by Eppu Normaali. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Vintage '52 Telecaster through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the nearest rig we use for Eppu Normaali's other songs, stands in. Keep the amp clean, just at the edge of breakup, and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
