From The Elephant Riders (1998). The Elephant Riders is the third full-length album by the band Clutch, released April 14, 1998, on Columbia Records, the only album Clutch made for the label. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson SG Standard through an Orange OR120 (Vintage), the rig we use for Clutch's other songs from The Elephant Riders, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

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