From America's Least Wanted (1992). America's Least Wanted is the debut studio album by American rock band Ugly Kid Joe, released on 8 September 1992 by Mercury Records. The album's personnel list credits Klaus Eichstadt and Dave Fortman with guitar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Ugly Kid Joe's other songs from America's Least Wanted, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-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 "Come Tomorrow" Tone
What guitar did Ugly Kid Joe use on "Come Tomorrow"?
The guitar on "Come Tomorrow" (released 1992) isn't documented; the Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s 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 "Come Tomorrow" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 6, Bass 5, Mid 6, Treble 6, Presence 6, Volume 8. 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 "Come Tomorrow" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Come Tomorrow" 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.
