Common Questions About the PUP Tone
What amp was PUP recorded with?
Every one of the PUP tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Marshall JCM800 2203. 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 PUP?
The Fender American Standard Stratocaster appears on the most PUP 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.
What amp settings do I need for the PUP sound?
Across the 5 guitar tracks from PUP we've catalogued, the median is gain 6 (range 6–6), with bass 5, mid 6, treble 7 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.
What pedals are on PUP?
The Boss DS-1 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.
