From Serfs Up! (2019). Serfs Up! is the third studio album by British post-punk band Fat White Family. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Standard Stratocaster through a Vox AC30HW2X Hand-Wired, the nearest rig we use for Fat White Family's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
