Why these settings

The Fever GA-10 is a small practice amp that cannot replicate Triple Rectifier saturation on its own. Maxing the gain gets you in the ballpark but will sound fizzy and thin compared to the original. A distortion pedal is strongly recommended to achieve the compressed, saturated character Donegan's tone requires. The mids are set lower than center to approximate the Rectifier's scooped voicing, but the GA-10 lacks the low-end thump—boost bass slightly to compensate.

PRO TIPPalm mute aggressively and pick hard directly over the bridge pickup pole pieces for that percussive Disturbed chunk. The Glarry's humbuckers will help, but the attack comes from right-hand technique—keep your wrist locked and use your forearm for the downstrokes on the chugging riffs.
