From The Age of the Understatement (2008). The Age of the Understatement is debut studio album by English supergroup the Last Shadow Puppets, released on 15 April 2008 by Domino. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an Epiphone Casino through a Vox AC30 C2, the rig we use for The Last Shadow Puppets' other songs from The Age of the Understatement, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

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