Twist amp settings — Fender Front man 10 g
The Tones on tail guitar tone for “Twist”, dialed in for a Fender Front man 10 g with a PRS S2 Standard 24. Studio version, Pop (1984) / 'Twist' single (1984)
Daniel Ash: 1970s Fender Telecaster / Burns Flyte into Marshall JCM800 combo, Boss flanger/chorus modulation, spring reverb, and overdrive/fuzz
| Knob | Setting (0–10) |
|---|---|
| Gain | 2 |
| Bass | 4 |
| Treble | 6 |
| Master | 4 |
01ProCo RAT2
Primary gain source; keeps the Frontman clean to prevent muddy double-gain clipping
02Boss BF-3 Flanger
Set mode switch to Standard; core signature sweep for Daniel Ash post-punk rhythm
03Boss RV-6 Reverb
Set mode switch to Spring; compensates for the Frontman 10G having no built-in reverb
The Fender Frontman 10G has only Bass and Treble with no Mid, Presence, or onboard reverb, so those are nulled. Because Ash's tone relies on a biting British crunch, your owned ProCo RAT2 serves as the primary gain engine into the Frontman's clean channel with amp gain kept down at 2 to prevent harsh solid-state clipping. Your PRS humbuckers are warmer than Ash's Telecaster, so keeping the RAT filter open and running the bridge pickup with tone at 9 reclaims the signature single-coil bite.
