Recording notes

From Just Like You (2015). Just Like You is the third studio album by American rock band Falling in Reverse. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Peavey 6505+, the rig we use for Falling in Reverse's other songs from Just Like You, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop C (C G C F A D).
