From Let Me Get By (2016). Let Me Get By is the third studio album from blues-rock group Tedeschi Trucks Band, released in 2016. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson SG Standard through a Fender '65 Super Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for Tedeschi Trucks Band's other songs from Let Me Get By, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "Hear Me" Tone
What guitar did Tedeschi Trucks Band use on "Hear Me"?
The guitar on "Hear Me" (released 2016) isn't documented; the Gibson SG Standard above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Hear Me" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 4.5, Bass 5.5, Mid 6.5, Treble 6, 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 "Hear 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 "Hear 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.
