Common Questions About the Girlfriend Tone
What amp was Girlfriend recorded with?
Every one of the Girlfriend tracks in our catalog was tracked on a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue. ToneMirror rewrites those settings for whatever amp you own - a different EQ curve and gain structure landing on the same recorded sound.
What guitar was used on Girlfriend?
The Stratocaster (modern equivalent: Fender American Professional II Stratocaster) appears on the most Girlfriend tracks in our catalog. You don't need one - the settings are calibrated to the recorded tone, so they translate to the guitar you already have.

Across the 5 guitar tracks from Girlfriend we've catalogued, the median is gain 6.5 (range 6.5–6.5), with bass 5.5, mid 6, treble 6.5 on a 0–10 scale. That's the record's window rather than any one song's recipe - pick a track above for the exact knob positions it was recorded with.
