Why these settings

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.

PRO TIPTune down to Drop B (B-F#-B-E-G#-C#) with heavier gauge strings (.011-.054 minimum) to capture the exact low-end baritone tension and chug Pete Loeffler gets on the track.
