Doyle's signature tone relies purely on high-output humbuckers slamming a high-gain Marshall tube circuit, so your DSL40CR's Ultra Gain OD1 channel provides the ideal voicing without needing the DS-1. Keep the DS-1 bypassed to prevent excessive mud and unwanted noise. Push the midrange and treble to replicate the aggressive, biting pick attack heard across American Psycho.
