01Mustang LT25 Built-in Chorus (MOD slot)
Use LARGE CHORUS or SINE CHORUS in the MOD block — subtle shimmer, not heavy wobble
02Mustang LT25 Built-in Delay (DLY slot)
Use MONO DELAY — aim for ~350-400ms slapback, 2-3 repeats max
The Mustang LT25 is a digital modeling amp — the Randall RG-100ES was a uniquely stiff, tight solid-state head with a specific mid-forward voicing the Fender models don't replicate exactly. I dropped gain to 3 because Dimebag's solo tone on Floods is NOT high-gain — it's a warm, articulate neck-pickup tone with effects doing the atmosphere work. The METAL 2000 model at low gain gives enough edge without mud. Your Dean humbuckers are hotter than the '59 neck pickup Dime used, so treble stays neutral.
