    Anyone knows how to achieve the guitar(s) tones in this song. The album mix, the guitars seem to be very cloudy/dreamy yet there's presence in em. Idk how to really explain it. I know they use lots of American amps, Fenders mostly. I have started off with those(via Amplitube) but still no dice. Any clues? Thanks

    Layer with ambient synth pads or reverbed organs. Add some reverb to the guitars.
