From Du & jag döden (2005). Du & jag döden is the sixth studio album by Swedish alternative rock band Kent, released on 15 March 2005 by RCA. The album's personnel list credits Joakim Berg, Sami Sirviö and Harri Mänty (rhythm) on guitar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Vox AC30 C2, the rig we use for Kent's other songs from Du & jag döden, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup.
