From Life's Not Out to Get You (2015). Life's Not out to Get You is the second studio album by Welsh pop punk band Neck Deep. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Player II Jazzmaster through an Orange Rockerverb 50 MkIII, the rig we use for Neck Deep's other songs from Life's Not out to Get You, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

The guitar on "Kali Ma" (released 2015) isn't documented; the Fender Player II Jazzmaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.

Settings for this sound: Gain 6, Bass 5, Mid 6, Treble 7, Presence 6, Volume 6. 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 "Kali Ma" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Kali Ma" 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.
