From Back into Your System (2002). Back into Your System is the third studio album by American rock band Saliva, released on November 12, 2002. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM2000 DSL100, the rig we use for Saliva's other songs from Back into Your System, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "Raise Up" Tone
What guitar did Saliva use on "Raise Up"?
The guitar on "Raise Up" (released 2002) isn't documented; the Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Raise Up" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 5.5, Bass 5.5, Mid 5.5, Treble 6, Presence 5.5, Volume 6.5. 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 "Raise Up" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Raise Up" 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.
