Recording notes

From Ultrasound (2025). Ultrasound is the fifth studio album by the American rock band the Neighbourhood, released on 14 November 2025 by Warner Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Vintera '60s Jazzmaster through a Morgan AC20 Deluxe, the rig we use for The Neighbourhood's other songs from Ultrasound, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.

FAQ

Common Questions About the "Planet" Tone

  1. What guitar did The Neighbourhood use on "Planet"?

    The guitar on "Planet" (released 2025) isn't documented; the Fender Vintera '60s Jazzmaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: neck pickup on the guitar. Tuned to standard (E A D G B E).

  2. What amp settings does "Planet" need?

    Settings for this sound: Gain 2.5, Bass 5, Mid 4.5, Treble 6.5, Presence 5.5, Volume 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.

  3. Can I play "Planet" without the original gear?

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Planet" 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.
