Thomas Raggi plays through high-headroom, high-gain British Marshall stacks; on your Fender Blues Jr IV, engage the FAT boost button and push the Volume (gain) to 8 while bumping the Mid knob to 8 to combat the natural Fender scoop and capture that singing midrange. The Blues Jr's top end is glassier than a Marshall, so Treble is held at 5 to prevent harsh fizziness on the Strat bridge pickup. Clean verse/intro: roll the Strat volume knob down to 4-5 and disengage the FAT switch.
