From Stick It to Ya (1990). Stick It to Ya is the debut studio album by American glam metal band Slaughter. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Charvel Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 1 HH HT through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Slaughter's other songs from Stick It to Ya, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
