From 20/20 (1985). 20/20 is a studio album by George Benson, released on the Warner Bros. record label in 1985. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson L-5 CES through a Polytone Mini-Brute IV, the nearest rig we use for George Benson's other songs, stands in. Keep the amp clean, just at the edge of breakup, and use the neck pickup. Published transcriptions put it in E♭ standard (E♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭), a half step below standard.
