The Fender Mustang LT25's Metal 2000 model accurately captures the Mesa Dual Rectifier preamp structure. Scooping the mids to 4 achieves the signature Chevelle wall-of-sound rhythm while keeping the low-end tight on the 8-inch speaker. Clean verse: roll guitar volume back to 4 or switch to the neck pickup.
