Description

I’m using a semi-hollowbody style guitar for this song, but any electric guitar is suitable. I’ve selected the bridge pickup for a bright, clear tone.

A Fender tube amp is the best choice to replicate the tones heard in this tune. Dial in a light crunch overdriven sound - for example, set the Preamp Gain to 60%, Bass to 45%, Mids to 55%, Treble to 60%, and Presence to 65%.

Guitar 2 kicks in a treble booster for more gain and sustain while playing the lead licks. Add some reverb to both guitars for depth. Guitar 2 uses more reverb for a washier sound.

I’m using regular light gauge strings that are 10-46 along with a heavy pick to dig right in.

Treble Booster (GTR 2):
