From Redemption (2018). Redemption is the thirteenth studio album by American blues rock guitarist Joe Bonamassa. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Joe Bonamassa Les Paul through a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue, the rig we use for Joe Bonamassa's other songs from Redemption, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
