From Caress Your Soul (2013). Caress Your Soul is the debut studio album by Australian rock band Sticky Fingers. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Stratocaster through an Orange AD30, the rig we use for Sticky Fingers' other songs from Caress Your Soul, stands in. Keep the amp clean, just at the edge of breakup, and use the middle pickup. Standard tuning.
Common Questions About the "These Girls" Tone
What guitar did Sticky Fingers use on "These Girls"?
The guitar on "These Girls" (released 2013) isn't documented; the Fender American Professional II Stratocaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: middle pickup on the guitar. Tuned to standard (E A D G B E).
What amp settings does "These Girls" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 3, Bass 5, Mid 5, Treble 6, Presence 6, Volume 5. 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 "These Girls" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "These Girls" 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.
