From Country Squire (2019). Country Squire is the third studio album and major label debut by American country musician Tyler Childers. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue, the rig we use for Tyler Childers' other songs from Country Squire, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
Common Questions About the "House Fire" Tone
What guitar did Tyler Childers use on "House Fire"?
The guitar on "House Fire" (released 2019) isn't documented; the Fender American Professional II Telecaster above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. Tuned to standard (E A D G B E).
What amp settings does "House Fire" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 3, Bass 5, Mid 6, Treble 6, Presence 5, 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 "House Fire" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "House Fire" 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.
