From Ese día piensa en mí (1988). Ese día piensa en mí is a 1988 studio album by Los Suaves. 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 Los Suaves' other songs from Ese día piensa en mí, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
