Studio recording, 2008 era. Curtis Ward is confirmed using the Peavey 6505+ with Marshall 1960B 4x12 cabs for this album/tour cycle. Guitar model inferred from typical BMTH gear and live photos; no direct studio confirmation for this exact song, but highly likely. Pedalboard evidence from Equipboard for this era.
