Crunch is the edge-of-breakup-to-medium-overdrive sweet spot — the classic rock and blues-rock voice. There's grit and sustain but the notes stay defined and the tone cleans up when you roll back the guitar volume. Set gain around 4–6, keep the mids up, and let the amp (or a light overdrive pedal) do the pushing.
