Why these settings

The MG30CFX Clean channel provides the necessary headroom, but its solid-state response is slightly stiffer than the warm tube cleans on the record. Scooping the mids slightly to 4 and brightening treble to 7 mimics the chimey British clean tone on single coils. Notice that the MG30CFX faceplate has no presence control, so that knob is nulled. Chorus verse/riff switch: keep the built-in Chorus active; for the slightly crunchier bridge, pick harder or step into the Crunch channel.

PRO TIPPosition 4 (neck + middle) on the Stratocaster gives that signature hollow 'quack' and chime heard on the arpeggiated chords — use a light 0.60mm nylon pick and strike near the neck pickup for maximum bloom.
