From Common Courtesy (2013). Common Courtesy is the fifth studio album by the American rock band A Day to Remember. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Peavey 6505+, the rig we use for A Day to Remember's other songs from Common Courtesy, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "I'm Already Gone" Tone
What guitar did A Day to Remember use on "I'm Already Gone"?
The guitar on "I'm Already Gone" (released 2013) isn't documented; the ESP LTD EC-1000 above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.

Settings for this sound: Gain 7.5, Bass 6, Mid 5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 7. Each value is on the standard 0–10 amp scale; match them on your amp first, then nudge to taste. ToneMirror can translate these positions for whatever amp you actually own.
Can I play "I'm Already Gone" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "I'm Already Gone" tone on a Katana, a Helix, a tube combo, or anything else. The translation accounts for EQ curve, gain structure, and pickup type so the result actually sounds like the record, not just the same knob numbers on different gear.
