Recording notes

From Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party (2025). Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party is the third studio album by the American singer-songwriter Hayley Williams. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Hayley Williams' other songs from Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

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