From Still Sucks (2021). Still Sucks is the sixth 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 rig we use for Limp Bizkit's other songs from Still Sucks, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
