From Heaven in This Hell (2013). Heaven in This Hell is the third studio album by Australian singer and guitarist Orianthi. Orianthi told MusicRadar she played the solo with a Cry Baby wah; she names no guitar or amp for this song, but on the same record she names PRS Custom 22 and Custom 24 guitars and an EVH amp, so the 5150III is a stand-in. A PRS Custom 22 through an EVH 5150III 50W is the rig here. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "Heaven in This Hell" Tone
What guitar did Orianthi use on "Heaven in This Hell"?
The guitar on "Heaven in This Hell" (released 2013) isn't documented; the PRS Custom 22 above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Heaven in This Hell" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 6.5, Bass 5, Mid 5.5, 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 "Heaven in This Hell" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Heaven in This Hell" 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.
What effects are on "Heaven in This Hell"?
The recording has wah on it. ToneMirror maps each effect onto your rig - a pedal you own, your amp's own controls, or a block on a modeler - and says plainly when your rig can't make one.
