Why these settings

The Yamaha GXR is a vintage/uncommon solid-state unit with universal Bass/Treble and Reverb controls, so mid and presence are set to null. The Pacifica 112V in position 4 (neck + middle) naturally captures Paras Thakur's glassy Stratocaster chime. Running the amp clean preserves headroom for the required ambient delay reflections.

PRO TIPPick lightly near the neck pickup using a hybrid picking style or bare fingers to get the rounded, dynamic transient response heard in the opening arpeggios.
