From Dandys Rule OK (1995). Dandys Rule OK is the debut studio album by American alternative rock band the Dandy Warhols, recorded from 1994 to 1995 and released on 6 April 1995 by Tim/Kerr Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster Thinline through a Vox AC30 C2, the nearest rig we use for The Dandy Warhols' other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup.

Can I play "Not Your Bottle" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Not Your Bottle" 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.
