Why these settings

The Gibson Flying V's humbucker is hotter and darker than Gilmour's single-coil Strat, so the tone knob is rolled slightly down to 8 while the fuzz tone is kept warm at 4 to prevent harshness. Because the GE100's Muff block provides the heavy saturation, the amp model is set to a clean Hiwatt-style platform with gain at 2 to avoid muddy double-distortion. The onboard mod block delivers the subtle swirling motion originally provided by Gilmour's Yamaha RA-200 rotating cabinet.

PRO TIPPick with the meat of your thumb alongside the plectrum for subtle pinch harmonics on the sustained high bends, letting the compressor and Big Muff sustain the note into natural singing feedback.
