From Foreign Tongues (2026). No source documents the guitar or amp on this track, so a Fender American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster into a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue stands in. Set a light-to-medium crunch on the bridge pickup and dig in harder for the louder sections. The rest of the album is in standard tuning, so that is assumed here.
