From Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor (2013). Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor is the fifth solo studio album by American musician Rob Zombie. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender John 5 Ghost Telecaster through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the rig we use for Rob Zombie's other songs from Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop B (B F♯ B E G♯ C♯).
