Why these settings

The M-Vave Tank G runs a clean Fender-style model (Amp 2) with low preamp gain, letting the internal overdrive block provide the BD-2/TS9 style drive per double-gain prevention. Because your PRS Custom 24 humbuckers pack thicker low-mids than the original Stratocaster, using the split bridge+middle coil position combined with a slight treble push yields the precise single-coil cut and snap heard on the recording. The Tank G has no physical presence knob, so top-end sparkle is shaped purely with the treble control and pickup selection.

PRO TIPPick with medium-heavy attack slightly closer to the bridge saddles on the intro melody to emphasize the initial transient pluck and string separation typical of 2000s OPM single-coil tracks.
