FAQ

Common Questions About the 3er arco Tone

  1. What amp was 3er arco recorded with?

    Every one of the 3er arco tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Fender Bassman 100 (Silverface, Vintage). 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 3er arco?

    The Fender American Standard Stratocaster appears on the most 3er arco 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 3er arco sound?

    Across the 2 guitar tracks from 3er arco we've catalogued, the median is gain 4 (range 4–4), with bass 5, mid 6, 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 3er arco songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 2 tracks from 3er arco broken down, including "El Farolito" and "Maradó". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
