FAQ

Common Questions About the Humble Pie Tone

  1. What amp was Humble Pie recorded with?

    Every one of the Humble Pie tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Super Lead (modern equivalent: Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead 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 Humble Pie?

    The Gibson Les Paul Custom appears on the most Humble Pie 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 Humble Pie sound?

    Across the 2 guitar tracks from Humble Pie we've catalogued, the median is gain 6.5 (range 6.5–6.5), 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 Humble Pie songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 2 tracks from Humble Pie broken down, including "Earth and Water Song" and "Red Light Mamma, Red Hot!". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
