Why these settings

The Mustang I V2 lacks a dedicated middle control on its physical faceplate, so mid is left null while treble is pushed to 7 to recreate the chime of a boutique EL84 amp. Position 4 (bridge+middle) on the Ibanez GRX40 combines a single coil with the split humbucker to mimic the snappy clarity of the original track's single-coil tone. The onboard stomp overdrive provides the primary King of Tone grit directly into the clean-crunch amp model without requiring external pedals.

PRO TIPPick firmly right near the bridge saddles using a medium-heavy plectrum to accentuate the transient click that lets the chording cut through the wet ambient delay.
