From Scream Above the Sounds (2017). Scream Above the Sounds is the tenth studio album by Welsh rock band Stereophonics, released on 27 October 2017 by Stylus Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gretsch G6122T Country Gentleman through a Vox AC30HW2X Hand-Wired, the rig we use for Stereophonics' other songs from Scream Above the Sounds, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup.

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