Common Questions About the Wipe Out Tone
What amp was Wipe Out recorded with?
Every one of the Wipe Out tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Twin Reverb (modern equivalent: Fender '65 Twin Reverb 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 Wipe Out?
The Stratocaster (modern equivalent: Fender Vintera '60s Stratocaster) appears on the most Wipe Out 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 Wipe Out sound?
Across the 2 guitar tracks from Wipe Out we've catalogued, the median is gain 2 (range 2–2), with bass 6, mid 4, 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.
How many Wipe Out songs can I dial in here?
