August 17, 201312 yr I'm trying to make a MIDI of Hurts Like Heaven, but none of the guitars i can use in my program sound good to the song. Can anybody who owns a telecaster (maybe a thinline 72) record the sound like it was used on the album and live? It'll help me very much. I only need 1 tone because i can edit it.
August 19, 201312 yr hi -- not sure if this matters, but i'm pretty sure that jonny plays a stratocaster for HLH, so you might want to try that instead of a tele if you're really gunning for that sound
August 20, 201312 yr Author No, he really plays a tele. Where have you seen him playing a strat on hurts like heaven. He plays a tele in Live 2012.

He used the Strat several times more than he used a Tele, and I would venture to guess his guitar tone was created around the Strat sound.
