Why these settings

The Champion 20 lacks a physical mid and presence control, so selecting the built-in 90s Metal voice is required to deliver the scooped-mid, high-gain punch of Stephen Carpenter's Marshall JMP-1 rig. Keep Bass at 5 to prevent the 8-inch practice speaker from flubbing out on the heavy Drop C# palm mutes, while bumping Treble slightly for attack definition. The Pacifica bridge humbucker supplies the necessary punch and output.

PRO TIPTune down to Drop C# (Db-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb) and use heavy, deliberate downstrokes with aggressive palm muting tight to the bridge saddles for the iconic percussive chug.
