Recording notes

From Cody (2016). Cody is the fourth studio album by American rock band Joyce Manor, released on October 7, 2016 by Epitaph Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Player Jaguar through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the nearest rig we use for Joyce Manor's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
