Anesthesia Pulling teeth amp settings — Kozmos Nova mini low mid high distortion

The Metallica guitar tone for “Anesthesia Pulling teeth”, dialed in for a Kozmos Nova mini low mid high distortion with a Trion Hss stratocaster. Studio version, Kill 'Em All (1983) — signature distorted bass solo

The original is a heavily distorted bass solo played with fingers through an EHX Big Muff and Morley wah into an Acoustic head. To replicate this on a six-string HSS Strat without external pedals, engage your amp's distortion channel at gain 8 with boosted bass (8) and heavy mids (7) to emulate the massive low-end body and vocal midrange of Cliff's bass fuzz, while cutting treble to 4 and rolling guitar tone to 4 on the neck single-coil to simulate the darker, rounded low-register attack. Note that your mini practice amp faceplate features only low, mid, and high controls, so presence and reverb are omitted. Clean intro switch: roll guitar volume down to 6 and switch to middle pickup.
