Why these settings

The JCM900 Channel A pushed around 6 gives Noel's classic edge-of-breakup foundation. Because a Fender Stratocaster has thinner single coils compared to Noel's humbuckers and semi-hollows, the Maxon OD808 is engaged with low drive and high level to thicken low-mids, while the amp treble and presence are pulled back slightly to prevent single-coil harshness.

PRO TIPPosition 4 (neck+middle) with the guitar tone slightly rolled back to 8 softens the attack to mimic Noel's rounded acoustic/PAF blend while strumming full open-position chords.
