From Being Funny in a Foreign Language (2022). Being Funny in a Foreign Language is the fifth studio album by English band the 1975. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Vox AC30 C2, the rig we use for The 1975's other songs from Being Funny in a Foreign Language, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck and middle pickups together. Standard tuning.
Common Questions About the "I'm in Love with You" Tone
What guitar did The 1975 use on "I'm in Love with You"?
The guitar on "I'm in Love with You" (released 2022) isn't documented; the Fender American Professional II Stratocaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: neck + middle (position 2) on the guitar. Tuned to standard (E A D G B E).
What amp settings does "I'm in Love with You" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 3.5, Bass 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 "I'm in Love with 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 "I'm in Love with 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.
