Common Questions About the Confession Tone
What amp was Confession recorded with?

What guitar was used on Confession?
The ESP LTD Viper-1000 appears on the most Confession 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 Confession we've catalogued, the median is gain 7.5 (range 7.5–7.5), with bass 6.5, 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.
