From Mi Sangre (2004). Mi Sangre (English: My Blood) is the third studio album by Colombian singer-songwriter Juanes, released on September 28, 2004. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Standard Stratocaster through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for Juanes' other songs from Mi Sangre, stands in. Keep the amp clean, just at the edge of breakup, and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

Settings for this sound: Gain 3, Bass 5, Mid 5.5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 4. 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 "Para Tu Amor" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Para Tu Amor" 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.
