Blind amp settings — Fender Mustang LT25

The Korn guitar tone for “Blind”, dialed in for a Fender Mustang LT25 with a ESP LTD KH-202 Kirk Hammett. Studio version, Korn debut album (1994), Indigo Ranch Studios

The Mustang LT25's Metal 2000 preset is modeled on the Mesa Dual Rectifier used on the original. Your KH-202's EMG-designed humbuckers are hotter than the original passive DiMarzios, so gain stays at 8 rather than pushing higher. Mid scooped to 3 to replicate the nu-metal hollow thump—the LT25's mid control sits higher in the frequency spectrum than a real Recto, so less scoop is needed to avoid disappearing entirely. No presence knob exists on this amp. The original uses a 7-string in A-standard; your 6-string in standard tuning will sit an octave higher on the low chugs—consider drop tuning to D or lower if your strings allow.
