From Witness (2009). Witness is the second studio album by the American metalcore band Blessthefall. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through a Peavey 6505+, the rig we use for Blessthefall's other songs from Witness, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop D.

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