From Be Here Now (1997). A slow, bluesy Be Here Now track whose slide guitar was played by Johnny Depp, recorded in spring 1996. No source available here confirms the exact guitar and amp on this recording, so a Gibson 1954 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue (R4) through a Marshall Valvestate 80V 8080 stands in. Set the amp at a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Tuning isn't documented here.

The guitar on "Fade In-Out" (released 1997) isn't documented; the Gibson 1954 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue (R4) above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.

Settings for this sound: Gain 6.5, Bass 5, Mid 6, Treble 6, Presence 6, Volume 7.5. 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 "Fade In-Out" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Fade In-Out" 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.
