From After the War (1989). After the War is the seventh solo studio album by the Northern Irish guitarist Gary Moore, released on 25 January 1989 by Virgin Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Kirk Hammett Greeny Les Paul Standard through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Gary Moore's other songs from After the War, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

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