Recording Notes

• The rhythm guitars were likely recorded with a close-miked amplifier cabinet.
• The guitar tracks were likely doubled or quad-tracked to create a thick, wide sound.

Recreation Tips

• Use a Gibson Flying V or similar guitar with humbucker pickups.
• Set the Marshall JMP amp to a high-gain setting, focusing on a tight low-end and aggressive midrange.
• Experiment with microphone placement on the cabinet to find the sweet spot.
• Double or quad-track the guitar parts for added thickness and width.
