Recording notes

From Lover of a Ghost (2025). Lover of a Ghost is a studio album by Violent Vira. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Violent Vira's other songs from Lover of a Ghost, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
