Why these settings

Because the owned Big Muff Pi acts as the main fuzz saturation into the front end, the Mustang LT25 is set clean with low amp gain to prevent muddy double-distortion. Mid and presence controls are physically absent on the LT25 faceplate, so treble is boosted slightly to compensate for humbuckers vs. Hendrix's single coils. Wah intro / verse transition: kick off the Big Muff and roll the guitar volume down to 6-7 on the neck pickup.

PRO TIPFlip the Fusion-III's coil-split switch (if equipped) to tap the neck humbucker for glassy Strat-style single-coil articulation before driving the fuzz.
