Why these settings

The Mooer GE100 uses a clean Fender-style amp model block to preserve headroom while the internal Muff/Fuzz block supplies the massive chorus wall of distortion. On a single-coil Stratocaster bridge pickup, keep the fuzz tone centered around 5 and push bass to 6 to compensate for the thinner single-coil output compared to Kurt's humbucker-loaded Mustang/Jaguar. Clean verse: bypass the Muff block and engage the chorus block.

PRO TIPHit the strings aggressively near the bridge during the chorus to push the upper-harmonic rasp out of the fuzz model without muddying the bottom end.
