Why these settings

The R-FIER MDN model inside the GT-1 captures the modern scooped-yet-thick saturation of the original recording. Running the GT-1's T-Scream model as a clean boost cuts flubby sub-bass before the amp block, while the bridge humbucker on your Vault RG1 delivers the required punch and harmonic bite. Post-amp digital delay and studio plate reverb provide the spacious Bollywood rock production finish.

PRO TIPDig in hard with a sharp 1.0mm+ tortex pick near the bridge on palm-muted rhythm sections to maximize the tight percussive attack before letting open power chords ring into the plate reverb.
