The recording
Taylor York performed the clean rhythm parts on "Still Into You" with a Fender Telecaster, using the bridge pickup. The guitar signal was processed through a TC Electronic G‑Major multi‑effects unit for chorus and reverb, then sent to a Marshall JCM800 set on a clean channel. The parts were double‑tracked and panned to create a bright, airy texture that sits prominently in the mix.

What gear was used for the Still Into You guitar tone?
The available research points to Fender Telecaster into Marshall JCM800. The full reported signal chain and evidence links are listed on this page.
Are the original Still Into You amp settings documented?
Exact historical knob positions are not reliably documented for most recordings. ToneTwin does not publish generated values as studio fact; it creates playable settings only for the amp and pedals a player selects.
What tuning is Still Into You in?
The current research record lists Standard (E A D G B E). ToneTwin keeps corrections open when reliable accounts disagree.
How do I recreate the Still Into You tone on my own gear?
Use the reported pickup, gain character, effects and signal-chain order as the target, then translate that target to your equipment. The matcher models controls for your selected rig rather than copying undocumented studio numbers.
