Nobody amp settings — Orange Crush 20

The Avenged Sevenfold guitar tone for “Nobody”, dialed in for a Orange Crush 20 with a ibanez IC-420. Studio version, Life Is But A Dream... (2023) — lead solo tone at 4:30

Original rig

Schecter Synyster Gates Custom (Seymour Duncan Invaders), Bogner Uberschall / modded high-gain head, likely Fractal Axe-FX for tracking; 7-string tuned low

RECOMMENDED — not currently owned. Use as a boost to tighten low-end and push mids for lead clarity. The Crush 20's gain alone gets fuzzy before reaching Gates' saturation — this pedal fills the gap.

Why these settings

The Crush 20's Dirty channel is warm and compressed like larger Oranges but lacks the headroom and tight response of a Bogner Uberschall. I've pushed gain to 8 (its usable ceiling) and cut bass to 4 to prevent mud through the 8-inch speaker. Mid at 6 compensates for Orange's naturally scooped voicing vs the mid-forward Bogner. A TS-style pedal is essential to reach Gates' articulate saturation — without it, you'll get fuzzy crunch, not singing lead tone.

PRO TIPGates picks aggressively right over the bridge pickup for that chainsaw attack. Roll your tone knob to 8 to tame the Invader-style harshness your IC-420's humbuckers approximate — wide open gets brittle on smaller amps.
