From The Ides of March (2021). The Ides of March is the second solo album by American singer and guitarist Myles Kennedy, released on 14 May 2021 by Napalm Records. The album's personnel list credits Myles Kennedy with guitar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Mesa Boogie Mark V, the rig we use for Myles Kennedy's other songs from The Ides of March, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

Settings for this sound: Gain 6.5, Bass 5.5, Mid 6, 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 "Love Rain Down" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Love Rain Down" 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.
