Why these settings

The Davis GA-25 is a basic solid-state practice amp with limited headroom and a naturally bright, thin voicing. Gain at 3 keeps it clean with slight warmth on harder strums. Mid pushed to 6 compensates for the amp's tendency toward scooped tones, filling out the emotional midrange this ballad needs. Treble at 5 prevents ice-pick highs that solid-state amps produce. Built-in reverb at 4 adds the ambient shimmer present in the studio recording.

PRO TIPRoll your guitar's tone knob to 7 and use the neck pickup to fatten up the solid-state thinness—pick closer to the neck joint with your fingers or a thin pick for that intimate, breathy clean tone December Avenue uses on the verse arpeggios.
