I’m voting not crap. The music they play isn’t particularly my thing but I’m not against it. I find some of their choices funny and ambitious. I think it’s commendable that they’ve built there own musical world out side the contemporary music business.

Beyond using the tube channel on the IVP, a full range speaker cabinet and metal pick with single coil pickups will get you close I’m not aware of specific settings.
