From Sturmfahrt (2017). Sturmfahrt (German pronunciation: [ˈʃtʊʁmfaːɐ̯t]; German for Stormy voyage) is the seventh studio album by German Neue Deutsche Härte band Eisbrecher, released in 2017 by Metropolis Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through an Engl Powerball II, the rig we use for Eisbrecher's other songs from Sturmfahrt, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop C♯ (C♯ G♯ C♯ F♯ A♯ D♯), a half step below drop C.
Common Questions About the "Das Gesetz" Tone
What guitar did Eisbrecher use on "Das Gesetz"?
The guitar on "Das Gesetz" (released 2017) isn't documented; the ESP E-II Eclipse above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in Drop C♯ (C♯ G♯ C♯ F♯ A♯ D♯), so retune before you dial anything in.
What amp settings does "Das Gesetz" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 6, Mid 5, Treble 6, Presence 6, 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 "Das Gesetz" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Das Gesetz" 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.
