Why these settings

The Laney LXX20r has a brighter, more solid-state character than the JCM800's warm tube saturation. I've pushed the mid control to 7 to compensate for the Laney's flatter voicing and kept gain moderate at 6 — the JCM800 original used around 7-8 but your SG's humbuckers are hotter than Mustaine's Duncans, so backing off prevents mud. Bass at 5 keeps the low-end tight without the flub that solid-state amps can produce under gain.

PRO TIPRoll your guitar's tone knob to 8 and pick closer to the bridge with a stiff pick (0.88mm+) for Mustaine's precise, percussive attack — his tone relies heavily on right-hand articulation and palm-mute control rather than amp saturation.
