Why these settings

The Marshall DSL inherently pushes a strong 1-2kHz British midrange compared to Wes Borland's scooped Mesa Dual Rectifier, so mid is pulled back to 4 while bass is pushed to 8 to mimic the Recto low-end thump. The DSL1HR faceplate lacks a presence knob and features a Tone Shift switch, so leave Tone Shift off and use the distortion pedal as a tight low-cut boost with low gain. Clean verse/intro: roll guitar volume down to 3 or switch to the Classic Gain channel with delay engaged.

PRO TIPWes tunes down to C# Standard (C# F# B E G# C#) with heavy gauge strings; hit percussive palm mutes hard right against the bridge saddles to get that signature bouncy nu-metal attack.
