Describe this "Tone" - Video Clip

Re: Describe this "Tone" - Video Clip

I think it's a neck single coil -listen to the little clear bite in the attack -that screams single coil to me.

So smooth warm with SC bite, played high on the neck.

As a gear head, I would describe it as classic Fender style neck pickup (Strat or Tele), run through modern style studio processing – i.e. plenty of compression, not very bright/abrasive in terms of e.q., and pretty darned dry. Could even be achieved with a solid state amp or recorded direct, though I would venture to guess it wasn't either. I guess Strat, as opposed to Tele, but it could be done on a Tele easily.

As for how I would describe it as a music listener: warm yet articulate, sweet but confident, very well balanced in tone and attack.

It's a very middle-of-the road, classic tone processed in a modern way, without much to differentiate it from anything else in its vein. Typical modern country.
