Recording notes

From Pop Drunk Snot Bread (2022). Pop Drunk Snot Bread is the eleventh studio album by the American rock band Bowling for Soup, released on April 22, 2022, by Brando and Que-so Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the nearest rig we use for Bowling for Soup's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

  1. What guitar did Bowling for Soup use on "Alexa Bliss"?

    The guitar on "Alexa Bliss" (released 2022) isn't documented; the Fender American Professional II Stratocaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. Tuned to standard (E A D G B E).

    Settings for this sound: Gain 6, Bass 5.5, Mid 6, 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.

  3. Can I play "Alexa Bliss" without the original gear?

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Alexa Bliss" 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.
