Common Questions About the Gulp! Tone
What amp was Gulp! recorded with?
Every one of the Gulp! tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Super Lead (modern equivalent: Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue). ToneMirror rewrites those settings for whatever amp you own - a different EQ curve and gain structure landing on the same recorded sound.
What guitar was used on Gulp!?
The Stratocaster (modern equivalent: Fender American Standard Stratocaster) appears on the most Gulp! 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.

Across the 3 guitar tracks from Gulp! we've catalogued, the median is gain 4.5 (range 4.5–5), with bass 5, 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.
