From Vixen (1988). Vixen is the debut studio album by American rock band Vixen, released on August 31, 1988, by EMI's Manhattan Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a B.C. Rich Warlock NJ Series through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Vixen's other songs from Vixen, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
Common Questions About the "Love Made Me" Tone
What guitar did Vixen use on "Love Made Me"?
The guitar on "Love Made Me" (released 1988) isn't documented; the B.C. Rich Warlock NJ Series above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. Tuned to standard (E A D G B E).
What amp settings does "Love Made Me" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 6, Bass 6, Mid 6, Treble 6, Presence 6, Volume 7.5. 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 "Love Made Me" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Love Made Me" 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.
