Why these settings

To compensate for the Stratocaster's brighter, lower-output single coils against Bocchi's humbucker-loaded Les Paul Custom, the tone knob is rolled down slightly and the amp mids are pushed to 7. The M-Vave Blackbox uses an internal Rat distortion block pushed into a high-gain British stack model to provide the aggressive, biting J-rock saturation. Clean intro/interlude: bypass the Rat distortion block and switch to neck pickup.

PRO TIPPick forcefully with an aggressive angle near the bridge to achieve the sharp, modern Japanese math-rock attack and articulate fast melodic runs.
