01Boss MT-2 Metal Zone
RECOMMENDED — not owned. Used by Kirk as a clean boost to tighten the front end of the amp
The Mooer Hornet 15W models high-gain voicings, so we use the OD 2 amp model to replicate Kirk's high-saturation solid-state Randall sound. We boost the bass to 8 and slightly scoop mids to 4 to capture the heavy, down-tuned sludge thump on your bridge humbucker without turning muddy. The Hornet 15 lacks a presence knob and Kirk runs completely dry, so presence is null and reverb is zeroed.
