To capture the polished rack clean on the Zoom G2X Four, the clean JC-120 block provides the pristine high-headroom platform used in 80s studio productions. Because single coils on a Strat naturally lack the thick midrange body of the original Les Paul Custom, the neck+middle 'in-between' position adds the glassy chime while the compressor rounds out the initial pick attack. No external pedals are required as all studio processing is built into the G2X Four chain.
