From Planet Zero (2022). Planet Zero is the seventh studio album by American rock band Shinedown, released by Atlantic Records on July 1, 2022. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a PRS Custom 24 through a Friedman BE-100, the rig we use for Shinedown's other songs from Planet Zero, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
