From ...And Out Come the Wolves (1995). ...And Out Come the Wolves is the third studio album by American punk rock band Rancid. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gretsch G6122T Country Gentleman through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Rancid's other songs from..And Out Come the Wolves, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
