From The War on Errorism (2003). The War on Errorism is the ninth studio album by the American punk rock band NOFX, released on May 6, 2003 by Fat Wreck Chords. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for NOFX's other songs from The War on Errorism, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
