Primary gain source — run direct into amp input, amp set to clean Metal type as pedal platform
The UM300 provides the scooped, saturated black metal distortion while the Mustang's Metal amp type acts as a clean platform. Amp gain kept at 2 to avoid double-gain muddiness. Treble pushed to 8 and presence to 7 to match the piercing, lo-fi character of the demo recording. Your RG's bridge humbucker is hotter than the original Westone, so pedal gain is 9 instead of maxed to prevent over-compression.
