The Spiritual Beggars guitar tone for “Another Way To Shine”, dialed in for a Fender Champion 40 with a Ibanez GIO GRG170DX. Studio version, Another Way to Shine (1996)
Gibson Les Paul / Flying V + Marshall JCM800 / Vintage Marshall Super Lead + Univox Super-Fuzz / MXR Phase 90

To avoid muddy double-gain, the Champion 40 is set to its clean channel with gain low so your Big Muff provides the authentic stoner fuzz. Treble is dialed down slightly on both the amp and guitar to tame the bright single-coil bridge tone and mimic Michael Amott's dark, heavy vintage Gibson humbucker voicing. The Champion 40 lacks a dedicated mid and presence control, so these fields are set to null.
