Common Questions About the Supermodel Tone
What amp was Supermodel recorded with?
Every one of the Supermodel 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 Supermodel?
The Stratocaster (modern equivalent: Fender American Professional II Stratocaster) appears on the most Supermodel 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 Supermodel sound?
Across the 4 guitar tracks from Supermodel we've catalogued, the median is gain 3 (range 3–3), with bass 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 Supermodel?
The Boss CE-2 Chorus 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.

ToneMirror has 4 tracks from Supermodel broken down, including "A Beginner's Guide to Destroying the Moon" and "Are You What You Want to Be?". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
