From The Invisible Band (2001). A warm, melodic pop-rock single with chiming electric guitars. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Classic through an Orange Thunder 100H (TH100) stands in. Set the amp on the edge of breakup and use the neck pickup. Tuning isn't documented here.
