Notes & Caveats
- No specific amp knob settings for 'Miéntele' solo found; settings estimated based on typical Vox AC-15 VR use in modern rock context.
- Pedalboard evidence is from live and general use, but matches era and is visible in video for this song.
- No explicit pickup selector info; bridge pickup inferred from solo tone characteristics.
- No pedal knob settings found; only pedal models and likely usage inferred from genre and audio.
- No evidence of effects loop use or amp-based delay/reverb beyond what is typical for this amp.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. The solo tone in 'Miéntele' by Los Bunkers is a classic rock crunch with a warm, mid-forward sound typical of British-voiced amps (like Vox or Marshall), moderate gain, and subtle ambience. The band favors clear, expressive leads with balanced EQ, and production from this era (mid-2000s Chilean alt-rock) often used moderate reverb and presence for clarity without harshness.
