From This Is Country Music (2011). A slow duet ballad with clean electric guitar fills. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a Crook Custom Paisley T through a Dr. Z Maz 18 Jr NR stands in.

Can I play "Remind Me" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Remind Me" tone on a Katana, a Helix, a tube combo, or anything else.
