From Loud Hailer (2016). Loud Hailer is the eleventh and final studio album by guitarist Jeff Beck, released on 15 July 2016 on Atco Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Custom Shop Jeff Beck Stratocaster through a Marshall JCM2000 DSL100, the rig we use for Jeff Beck's other songs from Loud Hailer, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
