From Dangerous: The Double Album (2021). Dangerous: The Double Album is the second studio album by American country music singer Morgan Wallen. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Fender Deluxe Reverb, the rig we use for Morgan Wallen's other songs from Dangerous: The Double Album, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "Neon Eyes" Tone
What guitar did Morgan Wallen use on "Neon Eyes"?
The guitar on "Neon Eyes" (released 2021) isn't documented; the Fender American Professional II Telecaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Neon Eyes" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 4, 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.
Can I play "Neon Eyes" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Neon Eyes" 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.
