From Kings of the New Age (2022). Kings of the New Age is the fourth studio album from American pop punk band State Champs. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Player Telecaster through an Orange Rockerverb 50 MkIII, the nearest rig we use for State Champs' other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in E♭ standard (E♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭), a half step below standard.

The guitar on "Everybody But You" (released 2022) isn't documented; the Fender Player Telecaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in E♭ Standard (E♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭), so retune before you dial anything in.

Settings for this sound: Gain 7, Bass 6, Mid 6, Treble 7, Presence 6.5, 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 "Everybody But You" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Everybody But You" 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.
