From Be Forewarned (1994). Be Forewarned is the third studio album by American doom metal band Pentagram. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Pentagram's other songs from Be Forewarned, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "Vampyre Love" Tone
What guitar did Pentagram use on "Vampyre Love"?
The guitar on "Vampyre Love" (released 1994) isn't documented; the Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Vampyre Love" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 6, Bass 6, Mid 5, Treble 5, Presence 5, 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 "Vampyre Love" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Vampyre Love" 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.
