From F8 (2020). F8 (pronounced "fate") is the eighth studio album by American heavy metal band Five Finger Death Punch, released on February 28, 2020. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson American Series Soloist SL3 through an EVH 5150III 100W, the rig we use for Five Finger Death Punch's other songs from F8, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
