Ty Segall's Amplifiers

"I have just one amp I like to record with—a ’72 Fender Quad Reverb. It’s like a double Twin with four 12" speakers."

Wow, that must be pretty heavy.

"Yeah, but it breaks up in the best way ... it sounds like Dick Dale on steroids."

Another interview with Premier Guitar:

But the koto we recorded like I would record my electric guitar: either through my regular setup [a Fender Quad Reverb] or with a DI, which I like doing a lot just because it sucks the air out and has that fingers-on-your-face kind of a sound. And actually, the bouzouki has a pickup in it. I think it’s a contact mic, so it sounds pretty awful, but if you blow it out and fuck it up, it sounds cool. The koto has a guitar pickup in it, too. I think someone hot-rodded that thing [laughs].
