From Strike and Kill (2026). Strike and Kill is the eleventh studio album by the American heavy metal band DevilDriver. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through an EVH 5150III 100W EL34 Head, the rig we use for DevilDriver's other songs from Strike and Kill, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "Ride or Die" Tone
What guitar did DevilDriver use on "Ride or Die"?
The guitar on "Ride or Die" (released 2026) isn't documented; the ESP E-II Eclipse above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Ride or Die" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 8.5, Bass 6, Mid 5, Treble 6, 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 "Ride or Die" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Ride or Die" 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.
