  2. What guitar was used on Flags and Emblems?

    The Telecaster (modern equivalent: Fender Player Telecaster) appears on the most Flags and Emblems 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.

    Across the 2 guitar tracks from Flags and Emblems we've catalogued, the median is gain 6.5 (range 6.5–6.5), 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.
