Marshall JMP-1 MIDI Preamp + Marshall 9200 MonoBloc Power Amp into Marshall 1960B 4x12 cabs, ESP Custom Horizon/M-II in Drop C# (Db-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb)
| Knob | Setting (0–10) |

The Laney LX35R has a warm, British-voiced solid-state drive stage and no presence control on its faceplate. To replicate the Marshall JMP-1 preamp's aggressive bite on Drop C#, pull the mid knob down to 3 to achieve the signature 90s nu-metal scoop while keeping bass at 7 for bottom-end punch without flub. Gain is set to 7 to maintain note tracking and tight palm-muting attack without turning fizzy.
