From Wide Open Spaces (1998). Wide Open Spaces is the fourth studio album and the major label debut of American country music band Dixie Chicks, released on 27 January 1998 by Monument. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for The Chicks' other songs from Wide Open Spaces, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

Can I play "There's Your Trouble" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "There's Your Trouble" 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.
