From Prequelle (2018). Prequelle is the fourth studio album by the Swedish rock band Ghost. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Hagstrom Fantomen through a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue, the rig we use for Ghost's other songs from Prequelle, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop C (C G C F A D).
Common Questions About the "See the Light" Tone
What guitar did Ghost use on "See the Light"?
The guitar on "See the Light" (released 2018) isn't documented; the Hagstrom Fantomen 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 "See the Light" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 6.5, Bass 5.5, Mid 6.5, Treble 6.5, 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 "See the Light" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "See the Light" 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.
