From 3 (1995). 3 is the third studio album by American hard rock band FireHouse. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for FireHouse's other songs from 3, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.
