Maladroit Defined Crunch — Explorer Rhythm & Melodic Lead
Cuomo said the Maladroit sessions used a plexi Marshall and a more deliberate approach to guitar tones, while period equipment histories place a Gibson Explorer and Marshall JCM2000 at the center of the record. The song-specific settings are undocumented, so this preset uses representative lower-gain rhythm and focused lead values from that rig.
