FAQ

Common Questions About the The Argument Tone

  1. What amp was The Argument recorded with?

    Every one of the The Argument 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 The Argument?

    The Telecaster (modern equivalent: Fender Standard Telecaster) appears on the most The Argument 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 The Argument sound?

    Across the 6 guitar tracks from The Argument we've catalogued, the median is gain 5.5 (range 5.5–5.5), with bass 5.5, mid 6, 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.

  4. How many The Argument songs can I dial in here?

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