Why these settings

The Mustang LT25's Metal 2000 model captures the aggressive saturation of the original Bogner Uberschall. Engaging the internal Greenbox/Overdrive block with low drive and high level replicates the Boss SD-1 boost Synyster Gates used to tighten the palm-muted chugs. Pull the mid control down slightly to match the scooped, razor-sharp modern metal EQ profile.

PRO TIPSynyster Gates uses extremely heavy, aggressive downpicking right next to the bridge saddles combined with high-output ceramic bridge pickups to get that percussive, chirping pick attack on the main verse riff.
