Why these settings

The Laney Linebacker L50R is a solid-state British-voiced combo with a slightly dry midrange. To match the Keith Richards/Pity Alvarez raw crunch on your Telecaster bridge pickup, keep the treble rounded at 5 and tone at 8 to avoid piercing harshness while pushing the mids to 7 for authentic bar-rock body.

PRO TIPPick hard near the bridge with an open attack on the shuffle chords to get that immediate, percussive dynamic crack heard on Argentine rock 'rolinga' records.
