Guitar cover of Korn - BLIND
7 STRING TUNING - A D G C F A D
Been a fan of Korn since I was around 13 years old and I finally went to see them live last month (August 2024) in London. They didn't disappoint and it inspired me to try and recreate the guitar tones for the mighty song Blind.
I used a great program called Moises to remove Munky and Head's guitar parts and added my own. I tried to get as close as I could to their original guitar tones using the gear that I have at home. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out!
All the gear I used is listed below and the pedal settings are there too.
I hope you enjoy watching, listening or playing along with this one my friends 🤘🏻

What a breakdown ! New subsciber here ! Cheers !
Very, very close. To the extent that without an A/B, I wouldn't have been able to spot any differences. I think Mike's tone has slightly more high-end gain in the distorted parts, and you've got a bit more low-end in general. Great work, though!
@@DeadReckoner thanks so much! You’re absolutely right. I think the high end side comes from that room sound and having all the instruments playing together in that amazing room 👍🏻
@Fitzgerd you've easily earned a sub from me :) I'll have more music stuff on my channel when work allows...
Incredible work dude. Loved every second of this video.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it ☺️👍🏻
Dude siiiick!!
Thank you!
Fantastic video mate, absolutely spot on. Wonderful tone.
@@djm1995 thanks so much! Such a brilliant sound on this record 🙌🏻
My Steinberger baritone has a pietzo PU in it. I like blending that sound with the EMGs.
@@TjByers369 cool! You can get some really unique tones blending the two 🤘🏻
If at all incubus needed another guitar player, definitely it’ll be you. Great job
@@kalimpongfastfoodcorner that’s very kind of you to say but there’s no replacing Mikey! 😁🤘🏻
This is amazing.
@@damionandy thanks so much!
Hey Chief I don’t think even Mike himself would remember half of all this that you recreated here Major Kudos Love Incubus and your nerdy ear 😊
@@rishabhbose29 ☺️ thanks so much! I’d love so much to be able to talk to someone who was closely involved in the recording to really iron out the last tiny details but hey ho!
7:17 dude our inner 12 year old both smiled at this point! What a sound!
@@tomhallmusic hell yeah! 🤘🏻 it’s such an addictive sound, I love it so much!
Absolutely brilliant, great work!! I love your attention to detail. I too share a passion for Morning View, it’s baked into my consciousness. What a cool and comprehensive breakdown of the tone that’s so unique and nostalgic for all of us. Thank you!! 🙏🏼
@@jason.heninger thanks so much! It really is my pleasure. Although I wanted to tear my hair out at times, I really did enjoy putting this together!
Hi, really great job, thanks for sharing it ! ;)
@@Christoneo my pleasure, thank you for watching!
"the sound of Morning View has been burned into my consciousness over the past 23 years" Truer words never spoken. I think I still have my Morning View Sessions DVD somewhere.
@@daughtersofdivorce6803 😁🤘🏻 I rewatched the morning view sessions many times while researching this. One of the best live performances of theirs 🙌🏻
Your point about the Blues VS Modern High Gain is very interesting. If you watch the rig rundown videos from around 12 years ago his amps are set to the Modern High Gain setting for the distortion channel. I wonder if it is because he started using the Music Mans around that time and it just sounded better with those?
@@bballgod237 that’s one of the things that tripped me up for a while. Everything I read or watched, he was always on the modern mode but anytime I recorded with that, the mid range just wasn’t there. There were some old forum posts I found of people saying morning view sounded like the blues mode so I decided to give that a go and boom, there was a good chunk of the sound! Now live he may always have used the modern mode but for the studio recording of morning view, it’s definitely the blues mode (apart from circles 😁)
@ Such a typical guitarist thing to do too….live = more gain lol Your videos are great man keep it up! I am in the same boat as you and started listening to Incubus way back in middle school (I think you and I are same age) and am obsessed with Mike’s tone. I currently have a Helix setup. I made a really awesome preset a few months ago that sounds damn close to his tone. Would love for you to check it out if you a Helix?
@ 😂 in his defence, for older stuff before morning view, it’s definitely the modern mode so he was probably weighing up what’s more important I guess. Interestingly, I have a hunch that the morning view sessions is using the blues mode. Sounds way more mid rangy than other live stuff but I could be totally wrong there 🤷🏻♂️ I don’t have helix native sadly!
おお！すごい完璧。。
@@yasu121601 thank you!
Awesome Job 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔝🔝🔝
@@chupiconverge6034 thank you!
21:28 … well hot damn brother. I think you found the sauce. Well done!! This is fantastic
@@ja5304 thanks so much!
Great work! Very nostalgic album to me, haven't listened to it in a while but you captured the vibes perfectly. Altogether I hear a tad more highs in the original and some more fizz on those distorted tones. And the guitars feel too close but that's basically what you say with that room sound. What works well for that imo is "seventh heaven" reverb's ambient modes - they are not the kind of super obvious reverbs but just add a bit of space and depth to sounds. There's also a free plugin called magic7, based on the same reverb. Would be interesting, if that helps with these tones. But cool stuff there and great video altogether!
@@rectangulardots thanks so much! Yeah those extra highs and fizz were the thing that was driving me the most crazy. On wish you were here and blood on the ground, you can hear it the most I feel. Thanks for the reverb recommendation, I’ll look into that 👍🏻
@@Fitzgerd Yeah but I don't think it's a big deal. I was just particularly listening for differences, still really great work!
@ really appreciate that, thank you! I honestly love the feedback, as it’s exactly what I think too. I eventually had to let it go and just put the video out otherwise I’d be tweaking forever and it still wouldn’t be 100% the same, it’s just not possible with the setup I have 👍🏻
@@Fitzgerd Sure that makes sense. Even with the same equipment in the exact same room and everything, one would still have a hard time getting it exactly the same, so it's impressive that you came so close.
Absolutely! Thanks again for the kind words ☺️👍🏻
Dude this is wild. So much detail and depth captured. Well done.
@@SJCameron89 thanks so much! Really was a labour of love 😁
This is nuts🤙
@@Alessrexar 😁 thank you! 🤘🏻
Absolutely incredible! Def will be snagging these IRs! Would love to see some ToneX captures as well! Cheers! Keep up the great work!
@@james.kistner thanks so much, that would be hugely appreciated! There’s so many capture options these days and I’d love to do them all but it’s finding the time to get it done 😅
Hey Nick, thank you for taking the time to figure out all the intricacies of Mike's MV tones and to compile it all into this very detailed video. You're a legend! This is my ultimate goal, to replicate the MV sound minus the reverberation of the big room in the mansion unfortunately haha. Like you said, the only thing we can't replicate is the sound of that big room and the mixing and mastering that produced the end result of the 2001 album. Nonetheless, wow!!! You have the tone pretty much 99.9% there, it's astonishing. I applaud you for this video, I will be saving it and coming back to watch it again and again as I work on recreating these MV tones as I slowly work towards saving and purchasing most of this gear, the amp is going to be the hardest to find i think. I'll be sure to download the IR packs as well, thanks for that man. You have so much knowledge mate, all self taught I take it? A true Einziger connoisseur. You're not only helping other fellow guitarists, you're also broadening the audience and getting more people into Incubus. Respect to you my friend.
@@AshtonBobowski as always Ash, thanks so much for your kind words! Appreciate it mate. I had lessons as a kid and into my 20s but all the recording etc has been my own exploration and mucking around. I still have a ton to learn 😅 Thanks for watching mate!
Without looking at the screen, I couldn't tell when you were switching the guitars. Great job!
@@nyxmugen thank you so much! ☺️👍🏻
Epic. If anything.. Your guitar sounds slightly fuller. And that's not a bad thing. Great video man. Love this album.
@@x7stringinJSCx thanks so much, very kind of you to say! It’s a beaut isn’t it? Gorgeous album all round
Next stop... White Pony by Deftones!
And thank you for this video. Both Incubus and Deftones truly defined my high school years and till this day when I listen to the music I get very nostalgic. Good times.
@@CyberJuanito YES! What a great album 🙌🏻
@@CyberJuanito my pleasure! They were my 2 favourite bands and probably still are to this day. Love it!
Nick , I asked you this before . Love how you went through the basics of mikes pedals . But , from the only 3 pedals you chose , where does the distortion, or overdrive sound come from when Mike is playing ???…
@@Erick-f7n it’s from his Tremoverb amps. One is set on the vintage high gain mode so lower gain and the other amp is set on channel 2 (the overdrive channel) on blues mode (apart from Circles, that I’m pretty sure was the modern high gain setting on the amp)
@ you’re awesome , nick . Can I also use a mesa boogie , rectifier throttle pedal ??.
Hats off to you Nick, that took some doing. Amazing job
@@hughwilson6429 thank you so much!
Next up: Aqueous Transmission right? love these
@@Moto_Plus 😁 do you have a pipa I could borrow? 😉
Good work, now I must go jam some Incubus!
@@devinnotschmevin 😁🤘🏻
What app did you use to strip mikes guitar parts?
It’s called Moises
@ Thank you. You’re Awesome!
@@evangoldenberg2470no problem!
I've seen many pics & vids of the DOD250 sitting on top of his amp, not on his board, which would imply some kind of "always on" use.
From the Morning View days or later?
@@Fitzgerd That's a great question. From memory, it was right around that time but I can't say that confidently.
@@SHIFTCombatSystemsthese are the little things I’d love to ask the man himself if I ever got the chance to 😁
Nick, you have outdone yourself here. Just incredible work. Incredible detail. And an incredible result. This clearly took a LOT of work and I’m so excited to try some of these techniques in my own tone and recording experiments ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much, I really appreciate it!
Very cool you achieved the Morning View tone with what you have! Since Mike probably used the same gear (or maybe almost) for the Make Yourself era, would you ever try to achieve the tone for that album as well?
Thank you! It’s the closest I feel I can get with the limitations I face 👍🏻 Absolutely! Make Yourself is definitely on the hit list too 😁🤘🏻
Literal thought that was the recording. Wow is that dead on
Thanks so much!
Unreal 🤯 out here doing the Lord's work. We thank you!
😁 thank you very much!
Glad to see your back! This channel made me want a trem-o-verb the second I saw the first video made with it and since then I’m finally getting one here soon!
Thank you! Enjoy your Trem-O-Verb, it’s such a fantastic amp!!
Morning view has the best guitar tone. The whole album sounds so good. Gotta get that archtop for the real deal sound and place the amps on top of a Malibu mansion for the natural reverb. Well done. My high school self appreciates this work
@@mattbertrand9496 thanks so much - I love this sound!
Nice one man
One thing I would like to know is how to get The Warmth tone. I believe this is where two phasers are being used. Some delay too, I believe. Amazing song, amazing tone
I have a video for the warmth on my channel already. The Redo version is where I dropped Mike’s guitar out and put mine in 👍🏻 Thanks for watching!
Brilliant mod on the PRS electronic system. I had this guitar for a while and sold it. I would love to have one again to try this mod.
@@im58woody 👍🏻 it’s incredibly handy!
Nick, just discovered your channel and you're doing an amazing job. Quick question, do you think the older Mesa Trem-o-Verb 100-Watt head paired with a brand new (as in purchased new right now in 2025) Mesa 2x12 cab with the V30s would get pretty close to the same sound as your combo amp? Keep up the great work. Thanks.
@@1MJ981 hiya. I would think it would be very similar. The only thing to keep in mind is my combo is an open back so you might get a different bass response? But it will definitely sound killer!! 🤘🏻
nice job
@@leonardofranco5051 thanks!
Woah! Nailed it!
@@richiebizzle thank you!
Man what a journey! This is awesome, feels like the end of a long quest for Mike’s tone and dude you sure did not take any shortcuts. Very well done sir, you’ve done it!! I am hopeful Mike will see this one day for sure.
It was a journey alright, a bumpy rollercoaster at times! Thanks so much, I really appreciate that ☺️👍🏻
Congrats, you're a legend Nick! Amazing sounding :)

@@HopelessReggie 😂
Interesting how there's an overdrive at the end of the chain... After delays and modulation. I'll be rearranging my board to experiment shortly. Cool!
@@jcgarcia1931 Yes! Mike does this loads. Be warned though, the delay is only really used on a clean amp, very rarely with an overdriven sound
