From Dying of Everything (2023). Dying of Everything is the eleventh studio album by American death metal band Obituary. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson King V through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the nearest rig we use for Obituary's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in D standard (D G C F A D), a whole step below standard.
Common Questions About the "Dying Of Everything" Tone
What guitar did Obituary use on "Dying Of Everything"?
The guitar on "Dying Of Everything" (released 2023) isn't documented; the Jackson King V above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in D Standard (D G C F A D), so retune before you dial anything in.
What amp settings does "Dying Of Everything" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 6.5, Mid 6, Treble 6, Presence 5.5, 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 "Dying Of Everything" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Dying Of Everything" 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.
