From Long Time Coming (2003). Long Time Coming is the fourth studio album by American musician Jonny Lang. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Custom Shop 1969 Telecaster Thinline Heavy Relic through a Fender '65 Super Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for Jonny Lang's other songs from Long Time Coming, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

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