FAQ

Common Questions About the Giants & Monsters Tone

  1. What amp was Giants & Monsters recorded with?

    Every one of the Giants & Monsters tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Marshall JCM800 2203. 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 Giants & Monsters?

    The ESP E-II Eclipse appears on the most Giants & Monsters 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 Giants & Monsters sound?

    Across the 8 guitar tracks from Giants & Monsters we've catalogued, the median is gain 7 (range 7–7), with bass 6, mid 5.5, 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.

  4. How many Giants & Monsters songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 8 tracks from Giants & Monsters broken down, including "This Is Tokyo" and "Giants on the Run". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
