Spacious studio wash
The ID:Core V4 lacks mid and presence controls on the faceplate, so we rely on the Clean Bright voice with ISF dialed toward the American side to emulate the Roland JC-120 clean platform. The Pacifica's single coils in position 4 capture the glassy, hollow attack of Parker's offset guitars without harsh high-end bite. For the gritty riff and solo sections later in the track, tap into the Crunch voice with ISF at 5 using the onboard gain.
