From The Nothing That Is (2024). The Nothing That Is is the seventh studio album by American deathcore band Fit for an Autopsy. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson Pro Plus Series Soloist SLA3 through a Peavey 6505+, the nearest rig we use for Fit For An Autopsy's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop A (A E A D F♯ B).
