From Ácido Argentino (1991). Ácido Argentino is the second studio album by Argentine thrash metal band Hermética, released in 1991 by Trípoli Discos. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson King V through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Hermética's other songs from Ácido Argentino, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
