01Digital Delay (Boss DD-3 style)
RECOMMENDED — not currently owned (run in FX loop or direct to replicate Synyster's soaring lead space)
02Tube Screamer (TS9 / Overdrive)
RECOMMENDED — not currently owned (tightens front-end bass flub on solid-state gain)
The Crate GTD65 solid-state high-gain channel provides ample saturation, but it can turn harsh if highs are pushed too high. Keep the mids around 6 to match the thick Bogner/Mesa push without scooping, and set bass to 7 for low-end chunk while keeping gain capped at 7 to prevent fizzy fuzziness on the Infinity R pickups. Clean piano-intro arpeggios: switch to the Clean channel with neck pickup and onboard reverb at 5.
