From A Crow Left of the Murder... (2004). A clean-toned alt-rock track with ringing, chorused guitar and a driving chorus. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a PRS CE 24 through a Mesa Boogie Mark IV stands in. Use the neck pickup and set the amp clean and chiming. Tuning isn't documented here.
