The '90S ROCK' model captures the saturated low-end thump of Cantrell's Dual Rectifier blend. To compensate for a lower-output, brighter Strat single-coil versus his hot Seymour Duncan JB humbucker, the mids and bass are pushed to 7 while the guitar tone knob is rolled back to 8 to shave the glassy top-end. Clean acoustic/intro verses: roll guitar volume back to 4 or switch to the neck pickup. Middle has no knob on the LT25: press the encoder to open the preset, press it again on the amp model, then select MIDDLE on the display and turn the encoder.
