From Rustin' in the Rain (2023). Rustin' in the Rain is the sixth album by the American country singer Tyler Childers, released on 8 September 2023. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for Tyler Childers' other songs from Rustin' in the Rain, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup.
