Front of amp block — tightens low-end for palm mutes

Placed before the amp block to eliminate high-gain hum
Nocny Kochanek relies on high-output humbuckers pushing a hot British tube head; on your Stratocaster bridge pickup, the Green OD block with level cranked and drive low adds essential body and cuts flubby bass. The Marshall JCM2000 model (UK 2000) provides the signature 80s/NWOBHM Polish metal roar, while keeping mids pushed to 7 prevents single-coil thinness. If your Ultra Strat has the S-1 switch, engage it on the bridge position for extra humbucker-like thickness.
