Comfortable lier amp settings — Pr-367 Sp.10

The Chvelle guitar tone for “Comfortable lier”, dialed in for a Pr-367 Sp.10 with a Pr-367 Sp.10. Studio version, Wonder What's Next (2002)

Original rig

Pete Loeffler used a Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier into Marshall 4x12 cabinets with a PRS Custom 24 (bridge humbucker), occasionally stacking a Boss SD-1 or ProCo Rat for extra aggression. Recorded with close mics on the cab for tight low-end punch.

Brutal mid-forward chunk with tight palm-muted riffs, compressed aggression, and gritty sustain without excessive scooping

Why these settings

The PG-367 SP.10 likely has a neutral voicing similar to modeling amps. I set gain at 7 to achieve thick saturation without mushiness, pushed mids to 7 (vs a scooped Rectifier's typical 4-5) to compensate for the lack of that amp's inherent mid-punch, and kept bass at 6 to avoid flub on palm mutes. Treble at 5 prevents ice-pick highs while maintaining string definition. Reverb at 0 because the original is bone-dry studio tracking.

PRO TIPDig in HARD with your pick attack on the palm-muted chugs—Pete's tone lives in the percussive right-hand aggression, not just amp settings. Use the meat of your palm just behind the bridge saddle to choke the strings tight without killing them completely.
