From The Nothing (2019). The Nothing is the thirteenth studio album by American nu metal band Korn, released on 13 September 2019 by Roadrunner. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an Ibanez Munky APEX 7-String (Korn Sig) through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the rig we use for Korn's other songs from The Nothing, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "This Loss" Tone
What guitar did Korn use on "This Loss"?
The guitar on "This Loss" (released 2019) isn't documented; the Ibanez Munky APEX 7-String (Korn Sig) above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "This Loss" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 6.5, Mid 4.5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6.5, 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 "This Loss" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "This Loss" 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.
