From Circus (1995). Nothing published ties a rig to this track, so a Les Paul into a Marshall Plexi stands in. Dial in a thick, slightly woolly midrange crunch on the bridge pickup. Tuning isn't documented here.

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