Cemetary Gates amp settings — Line 6 spider 112
The Pantera guitar tone for “Cemetary Gates”, dialed in for a Line 6 spider 112 with a Ibanez rg270dx .. Studio version, Cowboys from Hell (1990) — clean arpeggiated intro/riff section
Dean ML (Seymour Duncan '59 neck pickup) → Furman PQ-3 Parametric EQ → MXR 6-Band EQ → Randall RG100ES solid-state head, subtle studio reverb
| Knob | Setting (0–10) |
|---|---|
| Gain | 3 |
| Bass | 6 |
| Mid | 5 |
| Treble | 6 |
| Reverb | 2 |
| Master | 5 |
The Randall RG100ES clean is relatively flat and hi-fi. The Spider's Clean channel has more mid-scoop and digital brightness, so I raised mid +1 and dropped treble -1 vs the original to keep the warm, round character. Your Ibanez INF pickups are hotter and brighter than Dimebag's '59 neck humbucker, so rolling tone to 8 tames the ice-pick frequencies. Gain at 3 adds just enough body without breaking up.
