From Feels Like You (2019). Feels Like You is a studio album by Whirr. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Player Jaguar through a Fender Hot Rod DeVille 212 IV, the nearest rig we use for Whirr's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
