Why these settings

Dann Huff tracked the iconic rhythm parts using high-end studio rack compression, sterile cleans, and spatial modulation. The Boss GT-100 JC-120 model provides the pristine headroom needed without unwanted breakup. Using the Stratocaster's 'in-between' neck+middle position delivers the signature quacky, sparkling West Coast studio sound.

PRO TIPPick lightly with a medium-thin pick near the bridge for tight percussive definition, letting the compressor and stereo chorus widen the sustain.
