From Glow On (2021). A bright, melodic hardcore-leaning track from GLOW ON, with crunchy rhythm guitar and chiming accents. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a Gibson SG Standard through an Orange Thunder 30 stands in. Set the amp at a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Tuning isn't documented here.
