Your Ibanez GSA60 has HSS pickups—the neck single-coil will deliver the Strat-like warmth this blues tone needs. The Cube 40GX CRUNCH channel provides the mid-forward breakup; gain at 4 gives touch-sensitive dynamics without excess saturation. Bass is kept at 3 to avoid muddiness on the Cube's tight low-end voicing; mids at 7 push the vocal quality of blues phrasing.
