SIGNAL CHAIN

  1. Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer boost
    Drive 0.5 · Tone 4.5 · Level 8
    Nearly-clean boost that tightens the low end.
  2. Boss NS-2 Noise Suppressor eq
    Threshold 4.5
    Keeps the palm-muted riffs tight and quiet.

Scooped mids sound huge alone — add mids back on stage to cut through.

  3. MXR Carbon Copy delay
    Time 4.5 · Repeats 3 · Mix 3
    Kicks in for the solo — repeats tucked under the dry signal.

Lead variant: extra gain and mids to cut through, delay for width. Pick nearer the bridge and let bends sustain.

These are starting points, not gospel. Every amp is a little different, so let your ears do the last 10%.
