From The Paramour Sessions (2006). The Paramour Sessions is a studio album by the American rock band Papa Roach, released on 12 September 2006 by Geffen Records. The album's personnel list credits Jerry Horton with guitar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Schecter Jerry Horton Tempest (Papa Roach) through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the rig we use for Papa Roach's other songs from The Paramour Sessions, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
