From Viva Las Vengeance (2022). Viva Las Vengeance is the seventh and final studio album by American pop rock solo project Panic! at the Disco. 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 nearest rig we use for Panic! at the Disco's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
