From Let the Bad Times Roll (2021). Let the Bad Times Roll is the tenth studio album by American rock band the Offspring, released on April 16, 2021. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an Ibanez Talman TM302 through a Mesa Boogie Mark IV, the rig we use for The Offspring's other songs from Let the Bad Times Roll, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

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