From Hard Feelings (2018). Hard Feelings is the sixth studio album by the American metalcore band Blessthefall, released on 23 March 2018 by Rise Records. The album's personnel list credits Eric Lambert and Elliott Gruenberg with guitar. 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 Hard Feelings, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "Welcome Home" Tone
What guitar did Blessthefall use on "Welcome Home"?
The guitar on "Welcome Home" (released 2018) isn't documented; the ESP E-II Eclipse above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Welcome Home" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 6, Mid 5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 6.5. 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 "Welcome Home" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Welcome Home" 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.
