From Yoshu Fukushu (2013). Yoshu Fukushu is the fourth studio album by Japanese rock band Maximum the Hormone. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Diezel Herbert, the rig we use for Maximum the Hormone's other songs from Yoshu Fukushu, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop C (C G C F A D).

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