From Back to the Blues (2001). A slow blues with an emotive, bending lead. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JTM45 2245 Reissue stands in. Use the neck pickup and set the amp to a medium-gain crunch. Tuning isn't documented here.
