01Tank G Overdrive Block (Blues Driver / TS Style)
Primary gain source for the melodic crunch
02Tank G Delay Block
Subtle analog-voiced delay blended behind the notes
The M-Vave Tank G handles this classic OPM tone best with a clean American amp model platform pushed by its onboard overdrive block. Using the middle position (both pickups) on your Fernando Tele tames the bridge single-coil harshness and matches the vocal, chimey bite of the studio cut. Keep the amp block gain low at 3 to prevent double-gain mud while letting the OD block provide the dynamic crunch.
