From A Place in the Sun (1999). A Place in the Sun is the second studio album by the American rock band Lit, released on February 23, 1999 through RCA Records and the band's own vanity label Dirty Martini and produced by record producer Don Gilmore. 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 Lit's other songs from A Place in the Sun, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
