Notes & Caveats
- No direct source confirms exact pedal use or amp settings for 'Mkultra Victim' riff; gear inferred from Equipboard community lists and typical Negative XP studio setups.
- No evidence of pedals or effects beyond amp distortion; settings estimated based on genre, amp model, and audible tone.
- Pignose amp has limited EQ controls; settings are approximated to 0-10 scale for schema compatibility.
- No explicit pickup selector info; bridge pickup inferred from tone and genre.
- No evidence of effects loop or studio post-processing for guitar tone.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. Negative XP's 'Mkultra Victim' riff has a gritty, mid-forward punk tone typical of lo-fi, DIY production—likely using a solid-state or budget tube amp with moderate gain, balanced EQ, and minimal reverb for a dry, upfront sound. The settings reflect the genre's preference for clarity and attack without excessive low end or ambience.
