01Boss BD-2 Blues Driver (or NUX built-in Blues OD if available)

RECOMMENDED — not currently owned. The BD-2 is essential for this tone. Budget alternative: Joyo Vintage Overdrive or Mooer Blues Mood. If using NUX's built-in overdrive model, select the Blues or TS-style setting with similar values.

Why these settings

The NUX Mighty 40 has Fender-style amp models that match Blaster's clean platform approach well. Select the Tweed or Twin model for authenticity. Your Lightfooth PS-SE likely has humbuckers vs the original Telecaster single coils, so I've rolled the tone knob to 7 to tame excess warmth and kept treble at 6 to retain brightness. The mid push to 6 compensates for humbuckers' naturally darker voicing and ensures those signature melodic riffs cut through.

PRO TIPBlaster plays those 11th-13th fret riffs with precise hybrid picking — use your pick on the lower strings and fingers on the higher ones for the clean separation you hear on the record. Roll your guitar volume to 7-8 during verses for cleaner passages, then full up for the crunchier chorus hits.
