FAQ

Common Questions About the Deceiver Tone

  1. What amp was Deceiver recorded with?

    Every one of the Deceiver tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue. 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 Deceiver?

    The Fender American Professional II Jazzmaster appears on the most Deceiver 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 Deceiver sound?

    Across the 6 guitar tracks from Deceiver we've catalogued, the median is gain 7 (range 7–7), with bass 5, mid 5, treble 6 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. What pedals are on Deceiver?

    The Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi (NYC) shows up on the most tracks here, alongside the Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail Neo. Every track breakdown lists that song's full signal chain in order, and the match engine substitutes what you own for what you don't.

  5. How many Deceiver songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 6 tracks from Deceiver broken down, including "Between Tides" and "Blankenship". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
