Timi Bhane amp settings — Fender Tg-10
The Albatross guitar tone for “Timi Bhane”, dialed in for a Fender Tg-10 with a Ibanez GIO GRX70QA. Studio version, Jo Jas Sanga Sambhandhit Chha EP (2005)
PRS SE Mark Tremonti or similar humbucker guitar through a mid-gain amp setup, likely Marshall-voiced with moderate gain and a Wah pedal (Sunny's stated favorite effect)

| Presence | 0 |
| Reverb | 2 |

01Overdrive/Distortion Pedal (RECOMMENDED — Boss DS-1 or similar)
RECOMMENDED — not currently owned. Essential for achieving the sustained lead tones and gritty crunch heard on the recording. A Boss DS-1, Joyo Vintage Overdrive, or any budget TS-clone would get you 75% there. Without this pedal, push amp gain to 8 but expect less sustain on solos.
The Fender TG-10 is a small solid-state practice amp with a bright, scooped Fender voicing — it lacks the mid-push and natural compression of the Marshall-style amps this tone was likely recorded with. I've pushed mids to 7 (vs a typical 5 on the original) to compensate for the Fender scoop, and rolled treble back to 5 to avoid the TG-10's tendency toward ice-pick highs. Your Ibanez GIO's ceramic humbuckers are hotter and brighter than the original PRS's Tremonti pickups, so the tone knob at 7 tames harsh frequencies while keeping definition.
