Why these settings

The JEM7V's Evolution pickups are high-output and bright, so using the split bridge+middle notch position captures that glassy 80s session-rack sparkle without overloading the clean amp model. The GE200's clean platform (Fender Twin style) paired with comp, stereo chorus, and high reverb mix delivers the exact polished 1987 studio processing. For the heavy chorus sections, switch presets to a hot-rodded Marshall JCM800 model with high gain and bridge humbucker.

PRO TIPPick lightly over the middle pickup and roll the guitar volume down to 9 to tame the hot ceramic magnets of the Evolution pickups, giving you the pristine, non-clipping clean headroom heard on the album.
