FAQ

Common Questions About the Good Thing Tone

  1. What amp was Good Thing recorded with?

    Every one of the Good Thing tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Fender '68 Custom Vibrolux Reverb. 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 Good Thing?

    The Gibson ES-355 appears on the most Good Thing 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 Good Thing sound?

    Across the 3 guitar tracks from Good Thing we've catalogued, the median is gain 2.5 (range 2.5–2.5), with bass 5, mid 6, treble 5.5 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 Good Thing songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 3 tracks from Good Thing broken down, including "Beyond" and "Bad Bad News". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
