Recording notes

From Leave a Whisper (2003). Leave a Whisper is the debut studio album by American rock band Shinedown. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Diezel VH4, the rig we use for Shinedown's other songs from Leave a Whisper, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop A♯ (A♯ F A♯ D♯ G C).

Common Questions About the "No More Love" Tone

  1. What guitar did Shinedown use on "No More Love"?

    The guitar on "No More Love" (released 2003) isn't documented; the Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in Drop A♯ (A♯ F A♯ D♯ G C), so retune before you dial anything in.

  2. What amp settings does "No More Love" need?

    Settings for this sound: Gain 7, Bass 6, Mid 5.5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6.5, Volume 6. 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.

  3. Can I play "No More Love" without the original gear?

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "No More Love" 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.
