Why these settings

The Cort X300 humbuckers deliver more low-end and output than the single coils on the record, so rolling the guitar tone to 7 and pulling amp treble to 4 softens the high-end sparkle into that tape-warmed indie clean. The Nux Mighty 20BT's Clean channel handles the Fender-style headroom cleanly while its onboard chorus and short slapback delay replicate the Rostam Batmanglij modulation chain without outboard pedals. The presence knob is omitted because the Mighty 20BT faceplate lacks one.

PRO TIPPick with the flesh of your thumb or very gently near the neck pickup rather than near the bridge to round off pick transient attack and nail that signature pillowy bedroom-pop texture.
