From Woodface (1991). Woodface is the third studio album by Crowded House. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Vox AC30 C2, the rig we use for Crowded House's other songs from Woodface, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.
