Studio recording for 'Leaf' on the 2012 album 'Floral Green'. Jamie Rhoden is confirmed to use a Gibson Les Paul Custom into a Marshall JCM800 2204 for both live and studio work during this era.

Notes & Caveats

  • ⚠️No direct studio amp knob settings found; settings estimated based on Marshall JCM800 typical usage for modern punk/hardcore and tone descriptions from sources.
  • ⚠️Pedal models are inferred from era-consistent live pedalboards and multiple forum sources, but exact studio chain is not 100% confirmed.
  • ⚠️Pickup choice (bridge) is inferred from tone characteristics and genre, not explicitly stated in sources.
  • ⚠️Reverb setting is estimated low, as most ambience is likely from pedals or mixing, not amp.
  • ⚠️No evidence of effects loop usage in studio; signal chain order based on typical pedalboard layouts and live photos.
  • ⚠️Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. Title Fight's 'Leaf' riff section features a punchy, mid-forward, crunchy tone typical of their early 2010s post-hardcore/shoegaze sound, likely using a JCM800 or similar amp with moderate gain, balanced bass, strong mids, and slightly boosted treble/presence for clarity. The recording is quite dry, matching the genre's tight, upfront production.
