01Valeton GP-100 Delay Block (Analog Delay)
Set delay time to ~240ms for the iconic intro echo; bypass after intro
The Valeton GP-100's UK 800 amp block captures the modded Marshall SIR #36 preamp saturation accurately without needing an extra drive block in front. Keep the mids pushed to 7 to replicate Slash's cutting Marshall core, while leaving the treble at 7 to capture the signature bite of the bridge humbucker on your LP-style guitar. Intro echo: engage the delay block at ~240ms with moderate feedback, then stomp it off when the main riff kicks in.
