RECOMMENDED — not currently owned; place before dirt or in FX loop for the chorus shimmer in intro/verses
The Orange Crush 12 provides a warm analog gain section, but running single coils requires pushing gain to 8 and keeping mids at 7 to emulate Stef Carpenter's humbucker-driven Marshall rack. Treble is trimmed to 5 and tone to 8 to tame the Stratocaster's bridge bite and prevent top-end harshness in the Drop Db tuning. A moderate bass setting of 6 preserves low-end weight without overloading the 6-inch speaker.
