From Tales of Purefly (2014). Tales of Purefly is a 2014 studio album by MAN WITH A MISSION. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Classic Player Jaguar Special HH through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for MAN WITH A MISSION's other songs from Tales of Purefly, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop D.
