Why these settings

JerryC tracked the original using a hot Strat bridge pickup through Line 6 amp modeling with high mids and compressed gain. On your Cort X100 humbuckers, the Mark IIC+ model provides the necessary fluid sustain without harshness, while the TS9 block keeps the sweep arpeggios tight. Push the mids to 7 on the MG-300 to match the vocal-like 2000s YouTube shred presence. Intro clean melody: roll guitar volume down to 6 or switch to the neck pickup.

PRO TIPUse heavy, consistent alternate picking angled slightly on the treble strings to get the percussive, laser-precise attack JerryC gets during the fast 16th-note arpeggios and sweep sequences.
