From Songs About Us (2026). Songs About Us is the twelfth studio album by American country music artist Jason Aldean. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Jason Aldean's other songs from Songs About Us, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
