Original Recording

Guitar
Fender Stratocaster (likely late 80s/early 90s, as used by Cerati on Dynamo era)
Pickups
Single-coil (Fender stock Strat pickups, likely ceramic or Alnico V)
Amp
Marshall JCM800 (most probable for Dynamo era studio recording, as per Cerati's known rigs and genre conventions)
Pickup Position
Bridge pickup (for main riff clarity and attack)

Studio recording, Dynamo album sessions (1992); gear inferred from Cerati's pedalboard and amp choices during this era; no direct studio photo but consistent with period-correct live and studio setups.
