Common Questions About the Storyteller Tone
What amp was Storyteller recorded with?
Every one of the Storyteller tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue. ToneMirror rewrites those settings for whatever amp you own - a different EQ curve and gain structure landing on the same recorded sound.
What guitar was used on Storyteller?
The Telecaster (modern equivalent: Fender American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster) appears on the most Storyteller 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.
What amp settings do I need for the Storyteller sound?
Across the 3 guitar tracks from Storyteller we've catalogued, the median is gain 5.5 (range 5.5–5.5), 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.
What pedals are on Storyteller?
The Ibanez Tube Screamer TS-9 shows up on the most tracks here. Every track breakdown lists that song's full signal chain in order, and the match engine substitutes what you own for what you don't.
How many Storyteller songs can I dial in here?
ToneMirror has 3 tracks from Storyteller broken down, including "Smoke Break" and "Dirty Laundry". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
