From Boat Songs (2022). Boat Songs is the third solo album by American musician MJ Lenderman, released on April 29, 2022 by Dear Life Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Jazzmaster through a Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for MJ Lenderman's other songs from Boat Songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup.

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