From Marching in Time (2021). Marching in Time is the fifth studio album by American heavy metal band Tremonti, released on 24 September 2021 by Napalm Records. The album's personnel list credits Mark Tremonti on lead guitar and Eric Friedman on rhythm guitar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a PRS Mark Tremonti through a Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier, the rig we use for Tremonti's other songs from Marching in Time, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
