From Catharsis (2023). Catharsis is the third studio album by the American math rock band Covet, released on 7 April 2023 by Triple Crown Records. Guitar World's Catharsis feature says Yvette Young's signature Ibanez Talman YY10 covered all the material on the album, that her main amp is a Vox AC30 joined on this record by a Roland JC-40, and that "the chorus stuff has JC-40 blended in and everything that's broken up is the AC30". That is the Ibanez YY10 into a Vox AC30 here, with the JC-40 blended in for the chorused parts; no source gives the settings, so the knob values are approximate. Set the amp to a light crunch for the broken-up parts and use the neck and middle pickups together.
Common Questions About the "Coronal" Tone
What guitar did Covet use on "Coronal"?
The original guitar for "Coronal" isn't conclusively documented. The settings on this page are calibrated to the recorded tone regardless of which specific guitar you play.
What amp settings does "Coronal" need?
On Vox AC30 C2: Gain 3.5, Bass 5, Mid 6, Treble 6, Presence 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 "Coronal" without a Vox AC30 C2?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the original recipe above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Coronal" 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.
