Fix You


"Fix You" by Coldplay is a track from their 2005 album X&Y, written collaboratively by all four band members. This emotionally driven rock song builds from a quiet, introspective opening into a powerful climax, making it an excellent study in dynamic arrangement and production layering for electric guitarists interested in contemporary alternative rock.

  • Released as the second single from X&Y in September 2005, reaching number 4 on the UK Singles Chart.
  • Written by all four members of Coldplay, showcasing collective songwriting in modern alternative rock.
  • Features a gradual build-up structure that demonstrates effective use of dynamics and layering in composition.

Guitar

Fender Telecaster

The original solid-body electric guitar. Its snappy bridge pickup and no-nonsense construction deliver a sharp, cutting tone perfect for country, rock and blues. Favored by Keith Richards, Bruce Springsteen and countless session players.

Fender Jazzmaster
Guitar

Fender Jazzmaster

Originally designed for jazz, the Jazzmaster became the guitar of indie rock and alternative. Its floating tremolo, rhythm/lead circuit and soapbar pickups deliver a distinctive, warm and slightly noisy tone that defines shoegaze and alternative sounds.

Fender Twin Reverb
Amp

Fender Twin Reverb

The gold standard for clean tone. The Twin Reverb's 85 watts of headroom, brilliant spring reverb and crystal-clear sound make it the preferred amp for country, blues and clean rock. It stays clean louder than almost anything else.
