How did the Beach Boys get that sound with their guitars?

This is the type of questions you get when your knowledge of music comes from Pitchfork.

This is just surf rock which is a classic guitar tone. It's not a Beach Boys thing, they're just aping Dick Dale's tone for a Dick Dale cover.

It's usually a Fender guitar like a Strat or Jaguar through a Fender amp with a reverb unit. The rest is all tremolo picking.

How the fuck was Mike ever the "face" of the band, he's a skinny awkward dork with NO charisma.

Dennis was the pretty boy of the band that all the teen girls wanted to fuck.
