Dopethrone amp settings — Fender Twin Reverb

The Electric wizard guitar tone for “Dopethrone”, dialed in for a Fender Twin Reverb with a Harley Benton SC-Custom II. Studio version, Dopethrone album (2000), Chuckalumba Studios

Original rig

Epiphone SG-400 tuned to C → Boss FZ-2 Hyper Fuzz (Fuzz II mode) → Soundcity 120w head. Double-tracked guitars, bass mixed extremely forward.

Crushing, suffocating low-end fuzz wall with syrupy sustain and minimal high-end clarity — pure doom sludge

01Behringer SF300 Super Fuzz

Fuzz 2 mode is critical — this is the SF300's clone of the Boss FZ-2 Fuzz II circuit that defines the Electric Wizard sound. Pedal is the ENTIRE gain source.

Why these settings

Your Behringer SF300 is a direct clone of the Boss FZ-2 — you have the exact pedal needed. The Fender Twin is extremely clean and loud, which actually works here: the original Soundcity 120w was also run relatively clean as a pedal platform. Twin's scooped mids and bright treble shelf are countered by dropping treble to 3, pushing bass to 8, and rolling your guitar's tone knob to 4. Amp gain at 0 because the SF300 provides all the saturation.

PRO TIPTune down to C standard (C-F-Bb-Eb-G-C) — this is non-negotiable for the Dopethrone sound. The crushing weight comes from slack strings pushing massive low-end through the fuzz. Standard tuning will sound thin and fizzy by comparison, no matter your settings.
