Why these settings

Because the original is a mic'd acoustic steel-string guitar, your electric Strat needs an ultra-clean studio preamp block rather than a conventional guitar amp. Position 4 (neck+middle) hollows out the electric midrange to mimic acoustic resonance, while an owned TS9 is kept bypassed to prevent any magnetic drive. Treble is elevated to replicate condenser microphone air on bronze strings.

PRO TIPCapo your Stratocaster on the 4th fret to match the song's native voicing, and pluck over the front of the bridge pickup with your bare thumb and index finger to replicate the fleshy, intimate attack of Navjot's fingerpicking.
