The Dazey and the Scouts guitar tone for “Wet”, dialed in for a Harley Benton HB-20R with a Yamaha PAC 112J. Studio version, Maggot (2017)

Original rig

Unverified — likely budget tube combo or solid-state (punk DIY scene); guitar appears to be humbucker-equipped based on track thickness

Punchy, slightly gritty clean with midrange presence — punk rhythm foundation before dirt kicks in

Why these settings

The HB-20R is a basic solid-state Fender-style practice amp with limited EQ range. Gain at 2 keeps it clean but adds slight edge for punk rhythm attack. Mid pushed to 6 compensates for the amp's natural scoop and helps the riff cut. Treble at 5 and tone knob rolled to 7 prevents the Yamaha's ceramic humbucker from getting too brittle. Reverb at 0 — punk recordings are typically dry and in-your-face.

PRO TIPDig in hard with your pick right over the bridge pickup pole pieces — punk clean tones get their aggression from pick attack dynamics, not gain. Palm-mute lightly on the low strings during the verse to add rhythmic punch without mud.
