From Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum (2020). Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum is a studio album by the South African rock band Seether, released on 28 August 2020 by Fantasy Records. The album's personnel list credits Shaun Morgan on rhythm guitar and Corey Lowery on lead guitar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a PRS Custom 24 through a Diezel VH4, the rig we use for Seether's other songs from Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
