01Onboard Distortion / Fuzz (Marshall Code Dist stomp block)
Assign the onboard Dist FX block in front of the 1959HW preamp model (Fuzz/Classic OD mode)
The Marshall Code 25 is a digital modeling amp, so we select the vintage 1959HW Plexi preamp model matched to the 1960V cabinet IR. Because Hendrix got his sustained, blooming gain from a Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face in front of cranked Marshalls, the Code's internal Dist stomp block provides the fuzz saturation while the amp model supplies classic mid punch. On your Affinity Strat, rolling the guitar tone back just slightly from 10 tames the harsher top-end edge of modern ceramic single-coils.
