Lover, You Should've Come Over amp settings — Fender Frontman 10G
The Jeff Buckley guitar tone for “Lover, You Should've Come Over”, dialed in for a Fender Frontman 10G with a Squier Affinity Stratocaster. Studio version, Grace (1994)
1983 Fender Telecaster (neck pickup) into 1963 Fender Vibroverb Reissue with built-in spring reverb

RECOMMENDED — not currently owned (vital for Buckley's signature ambient wash; amp lacks onboard reverb)
The Frontman 10G is a 2-band solid-state practice amp lacking middle, presence, and reverb controls, so those fields are nulled. Keep the gain low on the clean channel to emulate the headroom of Buckley's Vibroverb without inducing harsh solid-state clipping. Roll the Strat's tone knob back slightly to tame the 6-inch speaker's natural treble bite and approximate the fuller Telecaster neck pickup voice.
