Why these settings

The Metal 2000 model on the Mustang LT25 captures the aggressive, saturated pre-gain of Stef's ADA MP-1 preamp without requiring external distortion. Compensating for single coils versus a high-output Seymour Duncan JB requires pulling treble down to 5, rolling the guitar tone to 8, and pushing bass and mids to 7 and 6 to recreate that massive low-end wall. Clean verse: engage the onboard chorus effect block and roll the guitar volume down to 6.

PRO TIPTune down to Drop Db (Db-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb) and hit the open-chord voicings aggressively right near the bridge with a heavy pick to force the single coil into compressed, percussive low-end chunk.
