I feel fine amp settings — Boss Gt-1
The Beatles guitar tone for “I feel fine”, dialed in for a Boss Gt-1 with a Dean zelinsky LaVoce. Studio version, Beatles '65 / single (1964) — main intro feedback and signature opening riff
1964 Gibson J-160E acoustic-electric (single P-90 at neck, flatwound strings) into a 1964 Vox AC100 head with 4x12 cabinet

01Boss GT-1 Compressor (CS block)
Placed first to mimic the percussive attack and natural compression of John's acoustic-electric J-160E top
02Boss GT-1 Spring Reverb (FX / REV block)
Subtle Abbey Road chamber/spring ambiance
The J-160E's single neck P-90 and flatwound strings give a thick, punchy bass response that a solidbody bridge pickup cannot recreate, so use your LaVoce's neck pickup with the tone rolled slightly back to 8. On the GT-1, the VOX amp model captures the classic mid chime and edge-of-breakup grit, while an upfront compressor emulates the percussive acoustic pluck of the original recording. Keep the amp gain moderate at 4 so the notes remain clear and articulate on the rapid string-skipping riff.
