Safe in your skin amp settings — Fender Frontman
The Title fight guitar tone for “Safe in your skin”, dialed in for a Fender Frontman with a Fender Telecaster Thinline. Studio version, Shed (2011) — clean atmospheric intro/lead
Gibson Les Paul Custom / Kurt Cobain Mustang / Fender Jaguar into Marshall JCM800 with EHX Holy Grail Reverb and Boss CE-2 Chorus
| Knob | Setting (0–10) |
|---|---|
| Gain | 2 |
| Bass | 6 |
| Treble | 4 |
| Master | 4 |
The Frontman has a naturally bright solid-state voice with no dedicated mid or presence controls, so treble is pulled back to 4 and bass set to 6 to emulate the warm low-mid resonance of a JCM800 clean. Because the Frontman has no built-in reverb, an external Hall reverb pedal is recommended to capture the expansive, washed-out atmosphere of this track. The guitar's middle/both-pickup setting compensates for single-coil bite vs the original humbuckers.
