Why these settings

The Fender Frontman 25R is a scooped solid-state clean platform, so the drive channel is bypassed entirely in favor of the EHX Russian Big Muff for authentic stoner saturation. The amp's Mid knob is pushed up while Treble is pulled back to counter the bright solid-state top end and match the thick, woolly low-mid weight of cranked British tube stacks. DiMarzio humbuckers on the Ibanez neck position provide the necessary warm, rounded fundamental before hitting the fuzz.

PRO TIPRoll the neck pickup tone knob down slightly to 7-8 and use heavy, deliberate downstrokes near the middle pickup area to get that signature sagging, monolithic doom-stoner attack.
