From Con el Corazón en la Mano (1993). Con el Corazón en la Mano is the debut studio album by the Colombian rock band Aterciopelados, released in 1993 by Sony Music. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the nearest rig we use for Aterciopelados' other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

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