From Three Dollar Bill, Y'all$ (1997). Three Dollar Bill, Y'all is the debut studio album by American nu metal band Limp Bizkit. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an Ibanez RG7421 through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the rig we use for Limp Bizkit's other songs from Three Dollar Bill, Y'all$, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in C♯ standard (C♯ F♯ B E G♯ C♯), three half steps below standard.
Common Questions About the "Indigo Flow" Tone
What guitar did Limp Bizkit use on "Indigo Flow"?
The guitar on "Indigo Flow" (released 1997) isn't documented; the Ibanez RG7421 above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in C♯ Standard (C♯ F♯ B E G♯ C♯), so retune before you dial anything in.

Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 7, Mid 4.5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, 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 "Indigo Flow" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Indigo Flow" 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.
