FAQ

Common Questions About the Moby Grape Tone

  1. What amp was Moby Grape recorded with?

    Every one of the Moby Grape tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Twin Reverb (modern equivalent: 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.

  2. What guitar was used on Moby Grape?

    The Telecaster (modern equivalent: Fender Vintera II '60s Telecaster) appears on the most Moby Grape 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 Moby Grape sound?

    Across the 2 guitar tracks from Moby Grape we've catalogued, the median is gain 5 (range 5–5), 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.

  4. How many Moby Grape songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 2 tracks from Moby Grape broken down, including "Omaha" and "Hey Grandma". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
