From Little Rope (2024). Little Rope is the eleventh studio album by American rock band Sleater-Kinney, released on January 19, 2024, on Loma Vista. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Danelectro '59M NOS+ through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Sleater-Kinney's other songs from Little Rope, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
