FAQ

Common Questions About the Aftershock Tone

  1. What amp was Aftershock recorded with?

    Every one of the Aftershock tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Marshall JMP 2203 Master Volume. 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 Aftershock?

    The Gibson Les Paul Custom appears on the most Aftershock 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 Aftershock sound?

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

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

    ToneMirror has 6 tracks from Aftershock broken down, including "Coup de Grace" and "Death Machine". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
