Nirvana Spank Thru Tone | Full Guitar Cover with 1988 Studio Tone
Covering Spank Thru with my recreation of Kurt’s 01/23/88 studio tone. This is my first video with my (new to me) Randall Commander II amp! 😍
This is the version of Spank Thru from Nirvana’s first studio recording session that has become known as the “Dale Demo“, because Dale Crover of The Melvins played drums on every track.
HUGE thank you to @d7kurt for the excellent backing track!
