01Boss CS-3 Compression Sustainer
Placed first in front of the amp to replicate Gary Moore's immense singing sustain and smooth string bloom
The Mustang LT40S British 80s model provides the thick Marshall crunch foundation without needing external dirt stacking. We push the amplifier midrange to 8 to match Gary Moore's vocal, fat Les Paul sustain, while pulling treble slightly back to 5 to avoid solid-state fizz. The Boss CS-3 delivers the signature endless sustain and initial compression characteristic of Moore's driven rig.
