Recording notes

From Cold Beer & Country Music (2024). Cold Beer & Country Music is the debut studio album by American country music singer Zach Top, released on 5 April 2024 by Leo33. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Brent Mason Telecaster through a Matchless DC-30, the rig we use for Zach Top's other songs from Cold Beer & Country Music, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
