Why these settings

Your Jackson's high-output humbuckers are hotter than Dime's L-500XL, so gain stays at 0 to maintain pristine cleans. Treble dropped to 4 (vs original ~6) because the Katana's CLEAN voicing is already bright and your Jackson bridge-focused voicing adds edge. Rolling tone knob to 6 softens the attack to match the original's pillowy warmth.

PRO TIPPick directly over the neck pickup with the fleshy part of your thumb grazing the strings for that round, almost bossa nova attack Dime used—this song is all about dynamics and restraint, not technique.
