From Something Else (2017). Something Else is the seventh studio album by Irish alternative rock band the Cranberries, released on 28 April 2017, through BMG. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through a Vox AC30 C2, the nearest rig we use for The Cranberries' other songs, stands in. Keep the amp clean, just at the edge of breakup, and use the neck and middle pickups together.
Common Questions About the "The Glory" Tone
What guitar did The Cranberries use on "The Glory"?
The guitar on "The Glory" (released 2017) isn't documented; the Fender American Professional II Stratocaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: neck + middle (position 2) on the guitar.
What amp settings does "The Glory" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 3, Bass 5, Mid 6, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, 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.
Can I play "The Glory" 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 Glory" 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.
