RECOMMENDED — not currently owned. A Boss CE-2, TC Electronic Corona, or Behringer UC200 clone gets you 80% of the shimmer. This is essential to the Her's sound.

Why these settings

The Gamma G25 is an unrecognized budget solid-state amp, so I've provided values only for standard gain/bass/treble/reverb/master controls — your faceplate labels may differ. The original Deluxe Reverb is a warm, mid-scooped Fender clean platform; keep gain low (3) to stay clean since solid-state amps don't break up musically. Treble at 6 compensates for your Raptor's brighter single-coil-style pickups vs Fitzpatrick's warmer humbuckers. Without a chorus pedal, you'll have the clean foundation but miss the lush modulation that defines this track.

PRO TIPRoll your tone knob to 7 and use your picking hand closer to the neck — Fitzpatrick's attack is soft and round, never harsh. The 'shimmer' comes from letting notes ring into each other with the chorus swirling underneath.
