Recording notes

From Shout! (2013). Shout! is the tenth studio album by American rock band Gov't Mule. The album was released on September 24, 2013. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Soldano SLO-100, the rig we use for Gov't Mule's other songs from Shout!, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
