Recording notes

From MegaHu (1999). MegaHu is a 1999 studio album by Kabát. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall DSL40CR, the nearest rig we use for Kabát's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
