From B.L.T. (1981). B.L.T. is a 1981 album by Robin Trower, Jack Bruce and Bill Lordan, released in February 1981 by Chrysalis Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Original 50s Stratocaster through a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue, the nearest rig we use for Robin Trower's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the neck pickup.

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