Common Questions About the Tourism Tone
What amp was Tourism recorded with?
Every one of the Tourism 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 Tourism?
The Les Paul (modern equivalent: Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s) appears on the most Tourism 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 Tourism sound?
Across the 2 guitar tracks from Tourism we've catalogued, the median is gain 6 (range 6–6), with bass 5.5, 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.
How many Tourism songs can I dial in here?
ToneMirror has 2 tracks from Tourism broken down, including "How Do You Do!" and "Things Will Never Be the Same". Each carries the original amp settings, pickup position, tuning, and pedal chain, plus a per-rig adaptation for your own gear.
