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 drop C♯ (C♯ G♯ C♯ F♯ A♯ D♯), a half step below drop C.
Common Questions About the "Unable to See" Tone
What guitar did Tremonti use on "Unable to See"?
The guitar on "Unable to See" (released 2016) isn't documented; the PRS Mark Tremonti above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in Drop C♯ (C♯ G♯ C♯ F♯ A♯ D♯), so retune before you dial anything in.
What amp settings does "Unable to See" 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 "Unable to See" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Unable to See" 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.
