From Freedom's Goblin (2018). Freedom's Goblin is the tenth studio album by the American garage rock musician Ty Segall, released on January 26, 2018 on Drag City. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Jazzmaster through a Vox AC30 C2, the rig we use for Ty Segall's other songs from Freedom's Goblin, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
Common Questions About the "Fanny Dog" Tone
What guitar did Ty Segall use on "Fanny Dog"?
The guitar on "Fanny Dog" (released 2018) isn't documented; the Fender American Professional II Jazzmaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.

Settings for this sound: Gain 7, Bass 5.5, Mid 6, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 7.5. 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 "Fanny Dog" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Fanny Dog" 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.
