From Gifts from the Holy Ghost (2022). Gifts from the Holy Ghost is the third studio album by American rock band Dorothy, released on April 22, 2022 by Roc Nation. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Dorothy's other songs from Gifts from the Holy Ghost, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
