Why these settings

The 80S ROCK model captures Zakk's hot-rodded JCM800 core, while the onboard OVERDRIVE tightens the low-end flub exactly like his Boss SD-1 boost. Because your Epiphone passive humbuckers lack the raw output and high-end compression of Zakk's active EMG 81, amp gain is set slightly higher at 7 and treble is pushed to 7 to restore pick-attack bite. Keep bass at 8 via the physical knob to mimic the heavy G12T-75 4x12 low-end thump through an 8-inch speaker. Clean interlude: roll guitar volume down to 6 and switch pickup to neck. Middle has no knob on the LT25: press the encoder to open the preset, press it again on the amp model, then select MIDDLE on the display and turn the encoder.

PRO TIPDig in hard near the bridge with heavy downstrokes and use heavy pick attack combined with slight thumb-edge grazing on low notes to nail Zakk's signature razor-sharp pinch harmonics.
