You are running the exact Mark IIC+ platform used for Ghost's signature studio crunch. On the Mark IIC+, the pre-EQ Bass must stay low (around 2.5–3) so the Lead Drive doesn't get flubby before the cascaded gain stages. If your head has the 5-band Graphic EQ, engage the classic subtle 'V' shape (boost 80Hz and 6600Hz slightly, notch 750Hz) to match the Andy Wallace production mix.
