From My Love Is Cool (2015). My Love Is Cool is the debut studio album by English alternative rock band Wolf Alice, released on 22 June 2015 through Dirty Hit. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Player Jaguar through an Orange Rockerverb 100 MkIII, the rig we use for Wolf Alice's other songs from My Love Is Cool, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

The guitar on "The Wonderwhy" (released 2015) isn't documented; the Fender Player Jaguar above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.

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