From Stupido hotel (2001). Stupido hotel is the thirteenth studio album by Italian singer-songwriter Vasco Rossi, released on 6 April 2001 by EMI. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Custom through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the nearest rig we use for Vasco Rossi's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
