FAQ

Common Questions About the Blueprint Tone

  1. What amp was Blueprint recorded with?

    Every one of the Blueprint tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Bassman (modern equivalent: Fender '59 Bassman LTD 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 Blueprint?

    The Stratocaster (modern equivalent: Fender Custom Shop 1961 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic) appears on the most Blueprint 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 Blueprint sound?

    Across the 3 guitar tracks from Blueprint we've catalogued, the median is gain 5 (range 5–5), with bass 5.5, mid 6.5, 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 Blueprint?

    The Dallas Rangemaster Treble Booster 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.

  5. How many Blueprint songs can I dial in here?

    ToneMirror has 3 tracks from Blueprint broken down, including "Seventh Son of the Seventh Son" and "Hands Off". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
