FAQ

Common Questions About the Coal Tone

  1. What amp was Coal recorded with?

    Every one of the Coal tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier. 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 Coal?

    The Ibanez RG1570 Prestige appears on the most Coal 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 Coal sound?

    Across the 3 guitar tracks from Coal we've catalogued, the median is gain 6 (range 6–6), with bass 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.

  4. How many Coal songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 3 tracks from Coal broken down, including "The Price" and "The Cloak". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
