From Dynamo (1992). Dynamo is the sixth studio album by Argentinian rock band Soda Stereo, released on 26 October 1992 by Sony Music. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Soda Stereo's other songs from Dynamo, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

Can I play "Sweet Sahumerio" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Sweet Sahumerio" 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.
