From Corazones (1990). Corazones (Spanish for "Hearts") is the fourth studio album by the Chilean rock band Los Prisioneros. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Telecaster Plus through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for Los Prisioneros' other songs from Corazones, stands in. Keep the amp clean, just at the edge of breakup, and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
