From In on the Kill Taker (1993). In on the Kill Taker is the third studio album by the American post-hardcore band Fugazi, released in June 1993 through Dischord Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Standard Telecaster through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for Fugazi's other songs from In on the Kill Taker, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
