Adds the lush studio ambiance heard in the outro solo
The Marshall Code 50 replicates Slash's JCM800/Silver Jubilee saturation accurately using its built-in JCM800 preamp block. Mids are boosted to 7 to deliver Slash's signature vocal punch, while treble is kept at 5 and guitar tone at 6 to tame harsh high-end digital fizz and nail that warm neck-pickup 'woman tone'. The Marshall Code 50 has no physical presence knob on its faceplate, so power-amp presence shaping is managed via the preamp model EQ.
