Notes

Studio recording, 2018-2019 (Nothing Happens album). Guitarists Braeden Lemasters and Dylan Minnette both use Hot Rod DeVille 212s in studio and live. No evidence of alternate amp for this song's riff section. Pedalboard likely used for effects, but main amp is DeVille. No evidence of alternate guitar for riff section.
