From Gutterflower (2002). Gutterflower is the seventh studio album by American rock band the Goo Goo Dolls, released on April 9, 2002 by Warner Bros. Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Vox AC30 C2, the rig we use for Goo Goo Dolls' other songs from Gutterflower, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "Think About Me" Tone
What guitar did Goo Goo Dolls use on "Think About Me"?
The guitar on "Think About Me" (released 2002) isn't documented; the Fender American Professional II Telecaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.
What amp settings does "Think About Me" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 6.5, Bass 5, Mid 6, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 7. 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 "Think About 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 "Think About 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.
