From With Love and Squalor (2005). With Love and Squalor is the major label debut album from rock band We Are Scientists. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson SG Standard through a Selmer Treble & Bass 50, the rig we use for We Are Scientists' other songs from With Love and Squalor, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
