Description
This song is in a dropped D tuning, which means we're in standard tuning but the low E (6th string) is tuned down a whole step to D.
For my lead guitar I'm using the L6 Purge setting of my Vetta II with the EQ set to 25% in the bass, 70% in the mids, 75% in the treble, and the drive is at 100%.
The built-in scream stomp box has the drive at 20% and gain at 100%.
Using the bridge pickup setting on your guitar provides the most power and clarity.
You'll also want a slide for this song for some of the solo parts.
