From Dust (2016). Dust is the third studio album by heavy metal band Tremonti. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a PRS Mark Tremonti through a Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier, the rig we use for Tremonti's other songs from Dust, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in E♭ standard (E♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭), a half step below standard.
Common Questions About the "My Last Mistake" Tone
What guitar did Tremonti use on "My Last Mistake"?
The guitar on "My Last Mistake" (released 2016) isn't documented; the PRS Mark Tremonti above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in E♭ Standard (E♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭), so retune before you dial anything in.
What amp settings does "My Last Mistake" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 7.5, Bass 6, Mid 5.5, Treble 6.5, Presence 6.5, Volume 7. 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 "My Last Mistake" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "My Last Mistake" 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.
