Common Questions About the Human Wheels Tone
What amp was Human Wheels recorded with?
Every one of the Human Wheels 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.
What guitar was used on Human Wheels?
The Telecaster (modern equivalent: Fender American Professional II Telecaster) appears on the most Human Wheels 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.
What amp settings do I need for the Human Wheels sound?
Across the 3 guitar tracks from Human Wheels we've catalogued, the median is gain 4.5 (range 4.5–4.5), 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.
