From Meat and Candy (2015). Meat and Candy is the debut studio album by American country music band Old Dominion. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Vox AC30HW2X Hand-Wired, the rig we use for Old Dominion's other songs from Meat and Candy, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck and middle pickups together.
