From The Elephants of Mars (2022). The Elephants of Mars is the eighteenth studio album by guitarist Joe Satriani, released on 8 April 2022 by earMUSIC. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an Ibanez JS2410 Joe Satriani (Muscle Car Orange) through a Marshall JVM410H, the rig we use for Joe Satriani's other songs from The Elephants of Mars, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
