From Dawn of the Dragonstar (2019). Dawn of the Dragonstar is the third studio album by Swedish symphonic power metal band Twilight Force. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through an Engl Powerball, the nearest rig we use for Twilight Force's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in E♭ standard (E♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭), a half step below standard.
