Onboard LT25 REV block
The Mustang's TWIN CLEAN model replicates Mike Einziger's studio Fender Twin Reverb setup with pristine headroom. Treble is dialed down to 5 to tame the ceramic pickups on your Ibanez GIO and keep the top end smooth rather than harsh. In-between position (neck+middle) thins the output slightly to emulate the airy single-coil chime heard on the album. For the phaser-swept intro nuances: enable the onboard PHASER block at low depth. Middle has no knob on the LT25: press the encoder to open the preset, press it again on the amp model, then select MIDDLE on the display and turn the encoder.
