Curse these metal hands amp settings — Fender Mustang LT25
The Lovejoy guitar tone for “Curse these metal hands”, dialed in for a Fender Mustang LT25 with a Yamaha Pacifica 012. Studio recording (2026)
Fender Telecaster / Jazzmaster into cranked Fender/Vox/Marshall-style tube amps with mid-gain overdrive
| Knob | Setting (0–10) |
|---|---|
| Gain | 6 |
| Bass | 5 |
| Treble | 7 |
| Reverb | 2 |
| Master | 6 |
The Fender Mustang LT25 physical faceplate lacks middle and presence controls, so those values are null and EQ shaping is handled via bass and treble. Using the LT25's British crunch/rock voice gives the necessary mid-gain indie drive without needing external overdrive pedals, while the bridge humbucker on your Pacifica provides immediate bite and clarity. Treble is pushed to 7 to match Lovejoy's bright, jangly post-punk rhythm tone.
