From Krig-ha, Bandolo! (1973). Krig-ha, Bandolo! is the first solo album by the Brazilian singer Raul Seixas. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for Raul Seixas' other songs from Krig-ha, Bandolo!, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
