Know the limits

  • Editorial recreation; these settings have not been listening-tested on your setup.
  • Pickup output, speakers, room, and studio layering remain differences; the numeric mapping is not an acoustic calibration.
  • This plan uses full humbuckers; a single-coil reference remains a pickup-type compromise.
