All the Small Things amp settings — Marshall Code 50
The blink-182 guitar tone for “All the Small Things”, dialed in for a Marshall Code 50 with a Fender Eric Clapton Stratocaster. Studio version, Enema of the State (1999) - Main Rhythm
1999 Fender Tom DeLonge Stratocaster (Seymour Duncan SH-8 Invader) into Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier blended with Marshall JCM900
| Knob | Setting (0–10) |
|---|---|
| Gain | 7 |
| Bass | 6 |
| Mid | 6 |
| Treble | 7 |
| Reverb | 0 |
| Master | 5 |
The Marshall Code 50 modeling engine covers the blended high-gain tone using its JCM800 or high-gain preamp model without needing external pedals. Because the Clapton Strat uses Vintage Noiseless single-coils rather than DeLonge's massive Seymour Duncan Invader humbucker, engage the mid-boost control around 3-4 on the guitar or bump amp gain to 7 to match that fat, driving pop-punk punch. Keep the EQ tight with mid and treble forward to retain clarity on fast power-chord switches.
