From Last Young Renegade (2017). Last Young Renegade is the seventh studio album by American rock band All Time Low, released on 2 June 2017 by Fueled by Ramen. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Mesa Boogie Mark V, the rig we use for All Time Low's other songs from Last Young Renegade, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

The guitar on "Drugs & Candy" (released 2017) isn't documented; the Fender American Professional II Stratocaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.

Can I play "Drugs & Candy" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Drugs & Candy" 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.
