01Overdrive (use amp's built-in OD or your external OD as clean boost)
Use as clean boost for solo sections only — adds slight edge and sustain for Halsall's melodic solo lines. Keep off for rhythm parts.
Your Mustang LT25's Twin model nails the clean Fender headroom this recording demands. The Telecaster bridge pickup is perfect for that Spaghetti Western twang — actually closer to ideal than what Halsall used. Rolled tone to 7 tames Tele ice-pick while keeping the characteristic snap. Mid pushed to 6 compensates for inherent Fender scoop and adds body to single coils.
