Alien Blues (Acoustic) amp settings — Laney LG 12
The Vundabar guitar tone for “Alien Blues (Acoustic)”, dialed in for a Laney LG 12 with a Ashton AG232. Acoustic version, Good Old (2022)
Steel-string acoustic guitar (flat-top, recorded via condenser microphone)
| Knob | Setting (0–10) |
|---|---|
| Gain | 2 |
| Bass | 6 |
| Mid | 4 |
| Treble | 7 |
| Master | 6 |
To emulate Brandon Hagen's mic'd acoustic on an electric rig, the Laney LG12 is kept on the clean channel with low gain to prevent clipping. Selecting the neck+middle (in-between 4th position) on the Strat-style Ashton hollows out the harsh electric mids, while a mild treble boost on the amp recreates the crisp acoustic pick attack.
