From Blow My Fuse (1988). Blow My Fuse is the fourth studio album by American hard rock band Kix, released on September 6, 1988 by Atlantic Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Kix's other songs from Blow My Fuse, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
