The LT25's Metal 2000 model approximates the ADA MP-1/Marshall high-gain stack. Gain pulled to 7 because the Mustang's modeling saturates earlier than a real tube preamp. Bass dropped to 4 (original was 5-6) to compensate for the LT25's looser digital low-end through its 8-inch speaker. Mid kept at 5 rather than scooped because the small speaker already lacks midrange authority. The original used a TS9 as a clean boost into the preamp for tightness — without one, keep the LT25 gain moderate to avoid mud.
