From Tailgates & Tanlines (2011). Tailgates & Tanlines is the third studio album by American country music artist Luke Bryan. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Luke Bryan's other songs from Tailgates & Tanlines, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
