From Back to Black (2006). Back to Black is the second and final studio album by the English singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse, released on 27 October 2006 by Island Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson ES-125 through a Fender Deluxe Reverb, the rig we use for Amy Winehouse's other songs from Back to Black, stands in. Keep the amp clean, just at the edge of breakup, and use the single pickup. Standard tuning.

Can I play "Me & Mr Jones" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Me & Mr Jones" tone on a Katana, a Helix, a tube combo, or anything else. The translation accounts for EQ curve, gain structure, and pickup type so the result actually sounds like the record, not just the same knob numbers on different gear.
