From Muy deficiente (1992). Muy Deficiente is the third studio album by Spanish rock band Platero y Tú. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Platero y Tú's other songs from Muy Deficiente, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
