The Premier Guitar video asks Bryant for the input-to-output chain; the board input label and his spoken walkthrough establish the order. The Cali76 remains physically last but is engaged only for resonator. Guitariste independently confirms the Dizzy Tone, Mastotron and Rodenberg drive vocabulary immediately before this board, while Guitar World confirms those same central gain choices afterward.
