FAQ

Common Questions About the Iceman Tone

  1. What amp was Iceman recorded with?

    Every one of the Iceman tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Twin (modern equivalent: Fender Twin Amp (Black Knob)). ToneMirror rewrites those settings for whatever amp you own - a different EQ curve and gain structure landing on the same recorded sound.

  2. What guitar was used on Iceman?

    The Telecaster (modern equivalent: Fender Custom Shop 1963 Telecaster Relic) appears on the most Iceman tracks in our catalog. You don't need one - the settings are calibrated to the recorded tone, so they translate to the guitar you already have.

  3. What amp settings do I need for the Iceman sound?

    Across the 2 guitar tracks from Iceman we've catalogued, the median is gain 4.5 (range 4.5–4.5), with bass 5, mid 7, treble 7 on a 0–10 scale. That's the record's window rather than any one song's recipe - pick a track above for the exact knob positions it was recorded with.

  4. How many Iceman songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 2 tracks from Iceman broken down, including "Put the Shoe on the Other Foot" and "Iceman". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
