Sugar, We're Goin Down amp settings — Boss Katana KTN-MINI
The Fall Out Boy guitar tone for “Sugar, We're Goin Down”, dialed in for a Boss Katana KTN-MINI with a Ibanez GRGM21M. Studio album cut, From Under the Cork Tree (2005)
Marshall JCM800 / Plexi style heads and Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifiers, Fender/Gibson humbucker guitars

| Bass | 5 |
| Mid | 6 |
| Treble | 7 |
| Master | 5 |
The Katana Mini's Brown voicing simulates the saturated, mid-heavy Marshall crunch heard on the track without needing external dirt pedals. Your Ibanez humbuckers provide the right output level, so keeping treble slightly elevated compensates for the Mini's compact 4-inch speaker. Note that presence and reverb do not exist on the Katana Mini faceplate and are omitted.
