Floods outro amp settings — Fender Mustang LT25

The Pantera guitar tone for “Floods outro”, dialed in for a Fender Mustang LT25 with a Ibanez GRG121DX. Studio version, The Great Southern Trendkill (1996) — the iconic clean outro solo section

Original rig

Dean ML with Bill Lawrence L-500XL or Seymour Duncan Dimebucker (bridge humbucker), Randall RG100ES solid-state amp on CLEAN channel, MXR Flanger/Doubler (subtle), volume pedal for swells

Warm, clean, singing sustain with slow vibrato, subtle modulation bloom, emotionally open and smooth — stark contrast to the heavy verse tone

Why these settings

The Floods outro is a CLEAN tone — Dimebag switched to the Randall's clean channel with gain at 2 for warmth without breakup. Your LT25's Deluxe CLN or base Clean model approximates this. The Ibanez INF pickups are hotter than the L-500XL, so gain stays low at 3. Mid raised to 7 because the Fender-voiced models scoop mids naturally and this solo needs midrange presence for the singing quality. Treble dropped to 5 to avoid the LT25's digital brightness. No flanger pedal owned — the built-in chorus on the LT25 at very subtle settings (depth low, rate slow) can approximate the MXR Flanger's bloom if desired.

PRO TIPThe magic is in the phrasing, not the gear — use wide, slow vibrato on bent notes and roll your volume knob down to 6-7 for swells on sustained notes, then bring it back up as the note blooms. Dimebag's clean vibrato was deliberately slower and deeper than his driven tone.
