What guitar was used on Face the Music?
The Stratocaster (modern equivalent: Fender American Professional II Stratocaster) appears on the most Face the Music tracks in our catalog. You don't need one - the settings are calibrated to the recorded tone, so they translate to the guitar you already have.
