From For Melancholy Brunettes (& Sad Women) (2025). For Melancholy Brunettes (& Sad Women) is the fourth studio album by American indie pop band Japanese Breakfast. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the nearest rig we use for Japanese Breakfast's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck and middle pickups together.
Common Questions About the "Orlando in Love" Tone

The guitar on "Orlando in Love" (released 2025) isn't documented; the Fender American Professional II Stratocaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: neck + middle (position 2) on the guitar.

Settings for this sound: Gain 3.5, Bass 5, Mid 6, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 6.5. Each value is on the standard 0–10 amp scale; match them on your amp first, then nudge to taste. ToneMirror can translate these positions for whatever amp you actually own.
Can I play "Orlando in Love" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Orlando in Love" 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.
