The Marshall MG15GFX is naturally mid-forward compared to the airy, scooped Fender Twin Reverb on the recording, so mid is pulled back to 4 while treble is bumped to 6. Running a Les Paul with humbuckers into a Marshall can sound too thick for indie-pop, so using both pickups together with volume backed off to 8 clears out muddy low-end and mimics the lower output of Daniel Kim's Jazzmaster. Set the MG15GFX onboard FX knob to a subtle chorus and engage the onboard Spring reverb at 6 to create the signature dreamy wash.
