From Stick Season (2022). Stick Season is the third studio album by American singer-songwriter Noah Kahan, who also served as producer alongside Gabe Simon. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for Noah Kahan's other songs from Stick Season, stands in. Keep the amp clean, just at the edge of breakup, and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
