Why these settings

The Fender Mustang LT25 lacks physical mid and presence knobs on its faceplate, so mid and presence are set to null while its internal British crunch model provides the JCM-style punch. To compensate for the thin, bright bite of the Squier Stratocaster single-coil bridge pickup compared to the thicker studio guitars, the guitar tone knob is pulled down to 8 and amp gain is raised to 7 to deliver modern rock crunch directly from the amp's modeling engine.

PRO TIPDig in hard with a heavy pick right near the bridge for the driving verse riff to accentuate the aggressive attack and string compression heard on the track.
