Why these settings

The Champion 20 has no mid knob—use the Voice selector on position 3 (rightmost) for the most mid-forward British-voiced gain. Your Jackson's hot ceramic humbuckers output more than Turner's Filter'Trons, so gain 8 reaches the fuzzy saturation without a pedal. Treble at 6 tames the Jackson's brightness vs the original's chimey Gretsch.

PRO TIPDig in hard with downstrokes near the bridge for that percussive attack Turner uses on the main riff—the tone lives in the pick aggression as much as the amp settings.
