From Doble Opuesto (1991). Doble Opuesto (Spanish: "Double Opposite") is the second album of the Chilean rock band La Ley and the first commercially successful one after their debut album, Desiertos, failed to sell. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Vintera '60s Stratocaster through a Vox AC30 C2, the nearest rig we use for La Ley's other songs, stands in. Keep the amp clean, just at the edge of breakup, and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.
