The Mcr guitar tone for “Teenagers”, dialed in for a Fender Mustang LT25 with a Ibanez GIO GRG170DX. Studio version, The Black Parade (2006) - rhythm crunch part
Gibson Les Paul / Epiphone Wilshire into Marshall JCM800 / modded Plexi and Fender Bassman blend
| Knob | Setting (0–10) |
|---|---|
| Gain | 6 |
| Bass | 5 |
| Mid | 7 |
| Treble | 6 |
| Reverb | 2 |
| Master | 6 |
The Fender Mustang LT25 lacks a dedicated physical mid knob and presence control, but selecting the 'Rock 80s' preset/amp model accesses a JCM800-style voice that provides the punchy upper-mid bite of the original track. Set the physical Bass and Treble around 5 to 6 to keep the low-end tight without getting harsh on the Ibanez ceramic bridge humbucker. Reverb is kept low to preserve the dry, punchy rhythm feel.
