From Three Days Grace (2003). Three Days Grace is the debut studio album by the Canadian rock band Three Days Grace, released on July 22, 2003, through Jive Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Studio through a Diezel VH4, the rig we use for Three Days Grace's other songs from Three Days Grace, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
