Sweet child o mine amp settings — e.g. Rj e.g. AG-15

The Guns and Roses guitar tone for “Sweet child o mine”, dialed in for a e.g. Rj e.g. AG-15 with a e.g. Rj e.g. Stratocaster. Studio version, Appetite for Destruction (1987)

The RJ AG-15 is an unrecognized small practice amp, so settings are based on near-universal controls. Slash's Marshall Super Lead is mid-forward and breaks up at high volume; your solid-state amp won't saturate the same way, so gain is set high (7) to get into crunch territory while keeping bass restrained (4) to avoid flabbiness through the small speaker. Mid pushed to 6 compensates for the likely scoop of a budget amp. Your Strat's single coils are brighter and lower output than Slash's humbuckers, so treble is pulled back to 6 and gain stays aggressive.
