From Still Sucks (2021). Still Sucks is a studio album by the American nu metal band Limp Bizkit, released on 31 October 2021 by Suretone Records. The album's personnel list credits Wes Borland with guitars. 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 Still Sucks, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

The guitar on "Ready to Go" (released 2021) isn't documented; the Ibanez RG7421 above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.

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