The recording
The song 'Knee Deep' was featured on the 2010 album 'You Get What You Give'. The studio production centers on Zac Brown's signature Taylor nylon-string guitars. While live performances often feature dual Fender '65 Super Reverbs for electric reinforcement, the hallmark 'Knee Deep' riff is defined by a clean, direct-in acoustic capture enhanced by high-end studio EQ and compression to provide its characteristic 'sandy' and present tone.
