Recording notes

From This Place Will Become Your Tomb (2021). This Place Will Become Your Tomb is the second studio album by the anonymous English rock band Sleep Token. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Modern through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the nearest rig we use for Sleep Token's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

  1. What guitar did Sleep Token use on "The Love You Want"?

    The guitar on "The Love You Want" (released 2021) isn't documented; the Gibson Les Paul Modern above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.

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

  3. Can I play "The Love You Want" without the original gear?

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