From Rock Transgresivo (1989). Rock Transgresivo is the debut album of the Spanish hard rock band Extremoduro. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Custom through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Extremoduro's other songs from Rock Transgresivo, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Amor castúo" 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.
