From Old Church Basement (2021). A gentle, repetitive worship groove with soft, clean guitar and long swells. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Vox AC30HW2X Hand-Wired stands in. Use the middle and bridge pickups together and set the amp clean, just short of breakup. Tuning isn't documented here.
Common Questions About the "Wait on You" Tone

Can I play "Wait on You" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Wait on You" 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.
