From Define the Great Line (2006). Define the Great Line is the fifth studio album by American rock band Underoath, released on 20 June 2006 by Tooth & Nail Records. The album's personnel list credits Timothy McTague on lead guitar and James Smith on rhythm guitar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the rig we use for Underoath's other songs from Define the Great Line, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop D.
