01Compressor (CS block)
Placed first before preamp to replicate the snappy, percussive chime of Fogerty's Rickenbacker
02Spring Reverb (FX block)
Models the built-in spring tank on the Kustom and Fender amps
The Boss GT-1's T-COMP model captures the woody, mid-focused bite of Fogerty's Tweed Deluxe. Because the Dean Zelinsky LaVoce humbuckers have higher output and thicker low-mids than a vintage Rickenbacker, the middle (both pickups) position with a slight bass roll-off and pushed upper-mids restores the jangly acoustic-like top end. Keep the preamp gain moderate around 4 so the amp breaks up only on hard-strummed chord accents.
