From Eight (2026). Eight is the eighth studio album by American rock band Shinedown, released by Atlantic Records on May 29, 2026. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a PRS Custom 24 through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the nearest rig we use for Shinedown's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

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