From Stray Dogs (2026). Nothing published ties a rig to this song, so a Fender American Professional II Jazzmaster into an Orange Rockerverb 100 MkIII stands in. Set a medium-high crunch on the bridge pickup and keep the low end tight. The rest of the album is in standard tuning, so that is assumed here.
