From Only Self (2018). Only Self is the debut studio album from American metalcore band Jesus Piece. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Dunable Gnarwhal through an EVH 5150III 100W, the rig we use for Jesus Piece's other songs from Only Self, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "Curse of the Serpent" Tone
What guitar did Jesus Piece use on "Curse of the Serpent"?
The guitar on "Curse of the Serpent" (released 2018) isn't documented; the Dunable Gnarwhal above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Curse of the Serpent" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 6, Mid 5, Treble 6, Presence 6, Volume 9. 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 "Curse of the Serpent" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Curse of the Serpent" 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.
