From Greetings from Imrie House (2005). Greetings from Imrie House is the debut studio album by American pop rock band the Click Five. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Vox AC30 C2, a common rig for this kind of sound, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "Just the Girl" Tone
What guitar did The Click Five use on "Just the Girl"?
The guitar on "Just the Girl" (released 2005) isn't documented; the Fender American Professional II Stratocaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Just the Girl" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 5.5, Bass 5, Mid 5.5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 7. 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 "Just the Girl" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Just the Girl" 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.
