Recording notes

From Lie to Me (1997). Lie to Me is the second studio album by the American blues guitarist Jonny Lang, released on January 28, 1997. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Vintage II 1961 Stratocaster through a Fender '65 Super Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for Jonny Lang's other songs from Lie to Me, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

  1. What guitar did Jonny Lang use on "Missing Your Love"?

    The guitar on "Missing Your Love" (released 1997) isn't documented; the Fender American Vintage II 1961 Stratocaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. Tuned to standard (E A D G B E).

    Settings for this sound: Gain 5.5, Bass 5.5, 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.

  3. Can I play "Missing Your 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 "Missing Your 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.
