Notes
Studio recording, 2014. Jack White confirmed use of Fender Twin Reverb for Lazaretto sessions, not Silvertone. Guitar is the custom EVH Wolfgang, not Kay or Telecaster for this track. Pedalboard includes fuzz and octave effects. Settings estimated based on genre, amp, and fuzz/octave pedal use.
