Bridge pickup
Studio recording, 1997 (Sehnsucht era, released as a B-side in 1997). Gear inferred from Equipboard and typical Rammstein studio setup for this era; no direct source for 'Das Modell' session, but EC-1000 with EMG 81 and Mesa/Boogie Rectifier is consistent with their 1990s studio tones.
