From Loudspeaker (2006). Loudspeaker is the sixth studio album by guitarist Marty Friedman, released in 2006 in Japan, and 2007 in United States. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson American Series Soloist SL3 through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the nearest rig we use for Marty Friedman's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

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