Recording notes

From Pride & Glory (1994). Pride & Glory is the only studio album by American rock band Pride & Glory. Wikipedia's article on the album says Zakk Wylde used Marshall amps from the early 1980s on it, but no source we found ties a particular guitar or amp model to this song, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Pride & Glory's other songs from Pride & Glory, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop D.

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Troubled Wine" 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.
