Recording notes

From I Believe (2023). I Believe is the tenth studio album by American contemporary Christian musician Phil Wickham. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Player Telecaster through a Morgan AC20 Deluxe, the nearest rig we use for Phil Wickham's other songs, stands in. Keep the amp clean, just at the edge of breakup, and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.

FAQ

Common Questions About the "This Is Our God" Tone

  1. What guitar did Phil Wickham use on "This Is Our God"?

    The guitar on "This Is Our God" (released 2023) isn't documented; the Fender Player Telecaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: neck pickup on the guitar. Tuned to standard (E A D G B E).

  2. What amp settings does "This Is Our God" need?

    Settings for this sound: Gain 3, Bass 5, Mid 6, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 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 "This Is Our God" without the original gear?

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "This Is Our God" 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.
