Franz Ferdinand
Nick McCarthy is visually associated with a 1959 Hagström P46 Sweetone for this song, while the debut sessions are documented around Kapranos’s Selmer and Hardy’s Fender Bassman 100. Whether that exact Hagström appears on the master is not confirmed, so the guitar assignment and knob values are a representative reconstruction from the documented era.
