Why these settings

The Fender Frontman 20G solid-state drive channel needs gain pushed to 8 to reach the aggressive saturation of Stephen Carpenter's cranked Marshall JMP-1 preamp. Keep bass at 6 to prevent the 8-inch speaker from flubbing out on the Drop C# low notes while setting treble to 7 to replicate the Marshall upper-mid bite. Quiet verse section: roll guitar volume down to 4 or switch to the neck pickup.

PRO TIPTune to Drop C# (Db-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb) and use heavy downpicking right against the bridge saddles to get the razor-sharp, percussive chug of the opening riff.
