From Dance and Dense Denso (2003). Dance and Dense Denso is the third studio album by Mexican band Molotov, released on February 25, 2003, through Universal Music Latino. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the rig we use for Molotov's other songs from Dance and Dense Denso, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
