Studio recording for 'Pub Feed' (2020), rhythm/riff section. Guitarist Josh Price tracked most of the album with a Takamine GX100 electric and Jazzmaster as well, but for the main riff, the Lead III is most consistently cited. Amp is always a Fender Twin Reverb, with drive from a pedal. Pedals used for drive, not amp distortion. Studio context, not live.
