From Koza nostra (1990).

No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s through a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue, the nearest rig we use for Riblja Čorba's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
