From War of Angels (2011). War of Angels is the second studio album by the American rock band Pop Evil. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through an Orange Rockerverb 100 MkIII, the nearest rig we use for Pop Evil's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop C (C G C F A D).

Can I play "Last Man Standing" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Last Man Standing" 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.
