Original used a hollow-body archtop into a Fender Twin for glassy jazz clean. Your Les Paul's neck humbucker is darker and hotter than the L-5's floating pickup, so I raised mid +1 and dropped treble -1 vs the original to avoid muddiness while preserving warmth. Tone knob at 6 tames the Les Paul's brighter wound strings. Gain at 2 keeps it spotless — this tone has zero breakup.
