From Frosting on the Beater (1993). Frosting on the Beater is the third album by American rock band The Posies, released in 1993. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Rickenbacker 330 through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for The Posies' other songs from Frosting on the Beater, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup.
