About the song
The basic guitar track is played on my 12-string Takamine, tuned to CGCGCD (that's open C suspended 2nd). The second track is played on my Takamine 6 string in standard tuning.

A complex series of remarks about the absurdity of tuning a guitar to open C sus2, and a bizarre in-joke about what that tuning spells, almost led me to title this "Jingle Beckett Rock." I feel strongly that we're all better off that I didn't.
