  2. What guitar was used on The Quantum Enigma?

    The ESP LTD H-1007 appears on the most The Quantum Enigma 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.

    Across the 3 guitar tracks from The Quantum Enigma we've catalogued, the median is gain 7.5 (range 7.5–7.5), with bass 6.5, mid 4.5, treble 6.5 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.
