From Leichtes Gepäck (2015). Leichtes Gepäck is the fifth studio album by the German band Silbermond, released on 27 November 2015. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the nearest rig we use for Silbermond's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck+bridge pickups together.
