Why these settings

The Fender Twin Reverb provides immaculate clean headroom matching the lush intro. The Bright switch is turned off and treble dialed back to 5 to tame the Stratocaster's glassy high-end compared to Farro's Tele Deluxe humbuckers. The M-Vave Blackbox handles mild compression and subtle ambient delay without adding unwanted drive.

PRO TIPPick with a light, even touch directly between the middle and neck pickups using a medium pick (0.73mm) to get round, bouncy note attack without single-coil spike.
