Tune Down 1/2 step. It also helps to use .013 strings, A vintage Fender
Strat in the neck pickup through a Fender or Marshall amp (if using a
Marshall, change the EL34 tubes to 6550's). You may wanna throw in an
tube screamer too.

Listening to the music video on youtube, it sounds like it's in the key of B, rather than Bb.

only a fool would play on 13s (no disrespect intended) go watch that RICK BEATO string gage shoot out utube Also no one needs a special amp or tubes to play a a 1-4-5
