01Joyo Double Thruster
Used strictly as a clean/transparent tone shaper with low gain to preserve round low fundamental; or bypass for pure tube thump
The Fender 59 Bassman naturally delivers warm tube bloom matching the track's round, late-60s Motown-inspired low end. Treble is dialed down to 3 and the Precision Bass tone control is rolled back to 4 to shave off clack and accentuate the pillowy low-mid pocket. The Joyo Double Thruster is kept very subtle with blend and gain low so it does not distort the clean fundamental.
