From The Last Hero (2016). The Last Hero is the fifth studio album by American rock band Alter Bridge, released on October 7, 2016, by Napalm Records worldwide except in North America, where it was released on the band's own vanity label. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a PRS Mark Tremonti through a Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier, the rig we use for Alter Bridge's other songs from The Last Hero, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "The Other Side" Tone
What guitar did Alter Bridge use on "The Other Side"?
The guitar on "The Other Side" (released 2016) isn't documented; the PRS Mark Tremonti above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "The Other Side" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 7, Bass 6, Mid 6, 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 "The Other Side" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "The Other Side" 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.
