Jonny Greenwood

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 versatile tone — built around classic amp 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 character without physical gear.
