Why these settings

The Fender Twin Reverb has immense clean headroom compared to Stevie's Vibroverb, so keep the bright switch OFF to prevent ice-pick highs. The TS9 is set with drive nearly off and level high to push the front of the Twin into warm, touch-sensitive compression. Onboard spring reverb replaces the need for an external reverb pedal.

PRO TIPLenny relies entirely on touch dynamics; pick softly near the fretboard with your thumb and fingers for chord melody chords, then dig hard with a pick for the signature sting on solo runs.
