Common Questions About the Here in the Real World Tone

  1. What amp was Here in the Real World recorded with?

  2. What guitar was used on Here in the Real World?

    The Telecaster (modern equivalent: Fender American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster) appears on the most Here in the Real World tracks in our catalog. You don't need one - the settings are calibrated to the recorded tone, so they translate to the guitar you already have.

  3. What amp settings do I need for the Here in the Real World sound?

    Across the 3 guitar tracks from Here in the Real World we've catalogued, the median is gain 3 (range 3–3), with bass 5.5, mid 6, treble 6.5 on a 0–10 scale. That's the record's window rather than any one song's recipe - pick a track above for the exact knob positions it was recorded with.
