From Significant Other (1999). Significant Other is the second studio album by American nu metal band Limp Bizkit. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a PRS Custom 24 through a Peavey 5150, the nearest rig we use for Limp Bizkit's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in C♯ standard (C♯ F♯ B E G♯ C♯), three half steps below standard.
