Why these settings

Your Explorer's humbuckers are hotter and warmer than Turner's Tele single coil, so I dropped treble from 7 to 6 and pushed mids to 7 to recover that nasal, biting attack. The Mustang's British 60s model approximates the AC30 chime. Without an OCD pedal, the amp gain handles the crunch — raised to 6 to compensate for no drive pedal in front.

PRO TIPDig in hard with downstrokes on the rhythm parts and use aggressive alternate picking on the single-note runs — Turner's frantic right-hand attack is half the tone. Rolling your tone knob to 8 instead of 10 tames the Explorer's darker voicing without losing cut.
