From Pandora (2013). Pandora is the third full-length album by Japanese reggae punk band SiM, released on October 23, 2013. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Schecter Hellraiser C-1 through a Diezel Herbert, a six-string rig for this heavy reggae-punk sound, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

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