Common Questions About the Carolina Confessions Tone

  1. What amp was Carolina Confessions recorded with?

    Every one of the Carolina Confessions 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.

  2. What guitar was used on Carolina Confessions?

    The Gibson ES-345 appears on the most Carolina Confessions 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 Carolina Confessions sound?

    Across the 3 guitar tracks from Carolina Confessions we've catalogued, the median is gain 4 (range 4–4), with bass 6, 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. What pedals are on Carolina Confessions?

    The Ibanez Tube Screamer TS-808 Reissue shows up on the most tracks here. Every track breakdown lists that song's full signal chain in order, and the match engine substitutes what you own for what you don't.
