From Master of the Rings (1994). Master of the Rings is the sixth studio album by German power metal band Helloween, released in 1994. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Helloween's other songs from Master of the Rings, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

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