DSP Rig
Jonny Greenwood Tone — Plugins & Amp Sims
Fender Telecaster, Gretsch Country Gentleman or vintage guitar into a Vox AC30 or Fender Twin, with extensive effects including DigiTech Whammy, EHX POG and various modulation. The tone varies dramatically — from jangly clean on "High and Dry" to the screaming whammy bar of "Just" to the orchestral noise of "National Anthem."
Jonny Greenwood's signature clean tone — built around Fender and Vox voicings — can be replicated in the box using modern amp sim plugins and IR cab loaders. This page maps the full DSP signal chain: guitar sim → amp sim → FX → IR, so you can dial in that angular, textural character without physical gear.
