The Mark V's Mark IV mode on Channel 3 nails this power metal voicing natively. Mids at 5 keeps the cut without getting honky — Mark series EQ is mid-forward by design so less scoop is needed than on a Rectifier. Gain at 7 delivers tight saturation without fizz; the GIO's ceramic humbuckers run hot so no boost pedal required. Presence at 6 adds pick attack clarity for palm mutes.
