Ty Segall's Very Loud 2022 Guitar Rig 

Get John Dwyer on here!!

This is like receiving the secret formula for the Krabby Patty

I've fixed Ty's Travis Bean before a show in 2017 in Berlin. This guitar is the reason why I've started to make my own aluminium necks. It just sounds incredible!! I'm so glad I could have this one in my hands, it just changed everything in my perception and how guitars should sounds. Thank you again Ty, you're the best.

RU-vid NEEDS MORE TY CONTENT

"Nasty" - Ty Segall

I’ve been following Ty for a while now and it’s always nice to see him talk. It’s like seeing an old friend again. I’m looking forward to his new record and if you haven’t seen him live yet put that on your list!

Dude writes good songs and riffs. Great crunchy guitar tones. Thought I was watching Tight Seagull during my first show of his because it was so loud.

I've been waiting a while for a video like this for Ty. I first saw & met Ty 8 years ago, no matter what he plays he always sounds like Ty. And he is one of the nicest guys I've ever met too. The only constant has been that 1972 Quad Reverb, he's played a Mustang, Les Paul, back in his early days a Strat, Jaguar, SG Melody Maker, among others. Pedal-wise he's used Big Muffs, the Fuzz War, now the Hyper Fuzz and flanger. He's really changed up his gear over the years to stay fresh and creative. Remember kids, it's not WHAT you play, it's HOW you play.

This rig is actually very similar to what Kurt Cobain used on the _In Utero_ album. Many people don't know that Cobain used Steve Albini's Travis Bean guitar to record a portion of the guitar tracks on the album. Buzz Osbourne of the Melvins used and had also introduced Cobain to the guitars and championed them. Cobain became quite intrigued with Travis Bean's and planned on incorporating them into his rig after the European tour since he was still signed with Fender and in the middle of debuting his new Jag-Stang model. Furthermore, Cobain's favorite amp and the one used to record much of _In Utero_ was also a "Frankenstein'ed" Fender Quad Reverb. The amp was missing either one or two of it's speakers and only had half of it's tube compliment installed. This caused a very aggressive form of signal clipping (distortion) that mixed even and odd order harmonics. As a side note, I'm pretty sure Peavey Mace amps are like 160 or even 200 watts. They use a shit ton of 6L6 power tubes. One of the guitar players from Lynyrd Skynyrd (I believe Gary Rossington) used them throughout the band's existence. 70's, 80's and 90's Peavey amps are pretty underrated. They quietly serve as the foundation for far more of the classic rock, punk, hardcore, indie rock, no wave/art/noise rock music of those era's. From Greg Ginn of Black Flag, Josh Homme of QOTSA and Lou Barlow of Dinosaur Jr using 70's Peavey solid state bass amp heads in their rigs, Lynyrd Skynyrd using the Mace, Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth using the 160 watt Peavey Roadmaster as his #1 amp his entire career. To all the late 90's through the mid 2010's punk, hardcore and metal bands using 5150 and 6505 heads. Not the least of which being the GOAT, Eddie Van Halen. Plus countless other musicians people would likely not think of. Peavey's, especially the older ones, are really well made, durable, good sounding and versatile amps that can be had very affordably. Not to mention - from what I understand - American made. Anyway, forgive me. I tend to rant aimlessly about things I find interesting and/or curious to no one in particular. Hopefully someone will get something out of it, lol.

I gotta say I really enjoy Ty on drums and Charlie on guitar in Fuzz

I saw him I'm Dallas in 2018. I got all the way to the front, right in front of Ty. Then I realized I left my ear plugs in the car.

Love Ty. Caught on to him back in 2011 and haven't found a more inspirational musician yet. Seen him twice and both times, I walked out of the venue happily deaf. If ya get the chance to see him, whether it's a one-man band kinda' show or if it's with him and one of his bands, f*ckin' do it.

i jump on a ty segall interview like a fly on shit

Manipulator is a top ten album for me. So good as a whole.

One of the reasons I started making music, he’s a beast.

Funny what he says about the Travis Bean only being for heavy music. Jerry Garcia is probably the most famous Travis Bean player that's been, and he barely even used distortion until the 80s.

Thank you Reverb. I hope Ty gets some serious recognition in the coming years. :)

Jerry Garcia might disagree about the Travis Bean being unsuitable for mellow guitar

Get John Dwyer to do one of these! Psych Rock Numba One!

Saw him last night at the Gothic in Denver, loved it. His back was to the audience a lot, sounded amazing but couldn't always see his playing. Nice to see him talk here.

stoked that you guys made a Ty video!!! saw him last month in Austin and it was an awesome show

Love Ty so much... Thank you for making this video happen!

Ive played his travis bean at a show in Baton Rouge and its heavy man!!!!

Saw him in Nashville in 2015 or 16 after Manipulator came out--loudest show I have ever seen.

Thx Reverb for bring this video out!!!!😍

Absolutely love this guy!! Keep rocking out dude! 🤘

steve albini said the quad reverb is the main amp (maybe the only ...?) kurt used on in utero. don't usually hear people talking about them. completely agree about the MF Delay - the gain is perfect.

Saw him in Asheville in June. I was in front/near his rig all night. It was amazing!

I like Ty Segall a lot!

Looking forward to hearing your rig live at The Lincoln Theatre in DC on 4/27

love this guy so fucking much

He actually just listed this very Travis Bean model for sale a few days ago.

This dude plays the loudest fucking shows hahahaha, love this guy

just realized i was at the show that they filmed this at before he went on!

Saw him a month ago, I can confirm it is VERY loud

That Quad Reverb is insane

a Travis Bean guitar was one of Lee Ranaldos main guitars in the early days of SY

DOD Flanger 575! One of my first pedals. You never see anyone with one of those.

that amp looks great, i have a twin reverb amp but god damn if i could go lighter i'd probably go what with he has.

Would love to see Oliver Ackerman or John Dwyer on here.

Thanks always Ty. Hope you do whatever you want, but stay loud at least here and there, pretty please.

this man knows what kinda sound he likes: loud and nasty

Was this filmed at Thalia Hall in Chicago? Sure seems like it. Pretty cool if so, one of my favorite venues

Ty!!!!!! The best ❤️❤️❤️

I had a Travis artist koa carved top stolen #1212 The pickups were amazing.

ELIGHTENED DI FUZZ ENJOYER

Just saw him in Chicago, can confirm, very loud

About the delay thing he does… I have a boss dd8 (great pedal, VERY versatile) that has a similar mode that does like an infinite repeat, but you have to hold it so that it keeps playing, and that is really annoying

Very cool noise!

Keep it loud Ty!! LOUDER!!

TY RULES!!

A Dual Reverb. WITH ALL. KNOBS. DIMED.

I was so glad they were a lot less loud when I saw them last month. The previous show I left 2/3 of the way through because I couldn’t hear them well with ear plugs but I couldn’t not use the plugs because they were so ridiculously loud. 2018 I believe. They were *fantastic* last month. His new song “Saturday Pt. 2” is one of the best things he’s ever done, and it’s mostly clean guitar, neck pickup, no guitar solo… aaahh.

This man is a musical genius.

Yeay Ty Segall!

Was this filmed in Toronto? That’s the Van Halen road crew shirt he was wearing when we met him on the Danforth…

Drink every "loud" and "nasty."

Did he have that DOD Performer modded to fit a 9v plug? Those pedals came with a weird 20v power supply with a 1/4 inch plug.

8:27 c l e a n

That first tune sounds like 'Fortune Teller'

Reps a Traynor and a '15 cab. That's so close to what I rock

I still remember when he was the drummer from Sex Bob-Omb

Seemed random, saw him Rapid City, SD ears blown out for days

SOOOO GUUUUD

Do john dwayer please 🙏 🙏

He's a lucky, lucky young man.

I'm pretty sure he just sold that guitar!

Hello, Hi Ty!

If the MF Delay were still around, people would be singing it’s praises and using it like Jimmy Page, Eddie Van Halen and East Bay Ray used Echoplexes. I swear the drive is perfect on its own.

What group is Ty Segall playing with at the start of the video? The guy does so much stuff I just want to know what I’m searching for 😩

As much as he described loving the TB guitar, he sold it in late 2023 for $11,000.

Saw him in Berlin 2019 - VERY loud haha

rad

Please do Kevin Parker’s rig!!!

I honestly enjoyed his tone more when he played the mustang/single coil guitars. Ever since he switched to the les paul and other humbucker equipped guitars his riffs haven’t hit as hard.

Im selling one if my kidneys to buy a Travis Bean , I cant wait , I hope the operation goes well !

I have the same amps in the video, how do you bi-amp them? I’m a little confused

travis bean guitar? i'm in

All these pedals bouta go up LMAO fuck sakes

does anyone know if he uses reverb and if so how much on the dial? i don't think he dimes it, but i'm just trying to figure out the settings so i can emulate him!

Nasty.

Jerry G. was a TB guy.

Neeed Doug Martsch to get one of these.

The best songwriter of our generation

What’s the song at the beginning?

I'm glad he's not a tool; good dude.

Envy

Mantap

Isaiah Mitchell

The thumbnail really looked like Kurt Cobain

Electric wizard put the hyper fuzz on the map ..

Get Gizz on

what's a DI, when he's describing the pedals?

ALHAMDULILLAH

I wanna see Ty play the Jaguar again

Which song is this?

Get Mike Watt and those missing men
