From That's the Spirit (2015). Alternative rock with layered guitars under a big, electronic-touched chorus. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a Jackson Pro Series Signature Lee Malia LM-87 through a Peavey 5150 stands in. Use the bridge pickup and set the amp for a tight, high-gain tone. Tuning isn't documented here.
Common Questions About the "Oh No" Tone
What guitar did Bring Me the Horizon use on "Oh No"?
The guitar on "Oh No" (released 2015) isn't documented; the Jackson Pro Series Signature Lee Malia LM-87 above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Oh No" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 6, Mid 5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6.5, 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 "Oh No" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Oh No" 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.
