Why these settings

Because the amplifier and guitar models are unrecognized entry-level practice models, generic standard faceplate controls are mapped. High gain is pushed on the drive channel to approximate 5150-style modern metal saturation, with treble raised for bite while keeping bass tight around 6 to prevent small-speaker flub. Adding an external overdrive pedal as a clean boost (Drive 0, Level high) will significantly tighten the low-end definition for this drop-tuned tone.

PRO TIPUse heavy, sharp downpicking right next to the bridge saddles to maximize string attack and choke notes cleanly with the heel of your picking hand for the staccato riffing.
