Why these settings

The studio recording centers on an energetic open-chord acoustic strumming rhythm rather than an electric rig. Dial the Acoustasonic's treble up to 7 to capture the percussive pick attack and pull the midrange slightly back to 4 to clear out the boxy resonance common with undersaddle pickups. Keep the Taylor 114ce ES2 tone knob just above halfway to maintain clarity without harsh top-end clack.

PRO TIPUse a light-to-medium celluloid or nylon pick (.60mm-.73mm) and strum over the fretboard edge rather than directly above the bridge pins to let the droning open B and E strings ring with a bright, ringing shimmer.
