The NUX Mighty 20bt British/Crunch channel provides the Marshall mid-bark, while pushing mids to 7 supplies the TS9-style vocal sustain without external pedals. Rolling your Epiphone humbucker tone knob back to 8 tames the ceramic top-end bite to match Keith Scott's warm Strat single-coil lead attack. The NUX 20bt has no presence control, so upper clarity is balanced directly via treble and onboard hall reverb.
