From Se Remata el Siglo (1993). Se Remata el Siglo is a studio album by the Chilean rock band Los Tres, released on 6 April 1993 by Columbia. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gretsch G6122T Country Gentleman through a Vox AC30 C2, the rig we use for Los Tres' other songs from Se Remata el Siglo, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
