The TWIN CLEAN model accurately recreates the studio Twin Reverb clean platform. Because the Squier Affinity Strat pickups have slightly lower output and warmer low-mids than American vintage single-coils, treble is bumped to 7 to maintain crisp funky snap. All dynamic leveling and chorused sheen are handled internally using the Mustang LT25's onboard COMPRESSOR, CHORUS, and PLATE blocks. 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.
