Description

This song features light crunch electric guitars. I’m playing a Telecaster set for the bridge pickup to give a bright, crisp tone for all the parts in this song. That said, this song can still be played with any electric guitar. Some of the parts are cleaner, so to best follow the dynamics of the arrangement, you’ll want to use your volume knob to clean up the sound when necessary.

A Fender tube amp is the best choice to replicate the tones in this tune. Dial in a clean setting: set the Preamp Gain to 75%, Bass to 30%, Mids to 50%, and the Treble and Presence to around 60%.

Add some reverb to both guitars to give plenty of space. Since we’re in standard tuning, I’m using 10-46 string gage. I’m also using a heavy pick to dig into these strums and licks.

SETTINGS:
Fender Deluxe Model:
Gain: 75%, Bass: 30%, Mids: 50%, Treble: 60%, Presence: 60%
Reverb: WetDryMIX: 35%
