01MXR 10-Band EQ (or similar graphic EQ)
RECOMMENDED — not currently owned. Dimebag's clean tone relied heavily on EQ shaping (Furman PQ-3 + MXR 6-band). A graphic EQ pedal is essential to nail the scooped-low-mid, boosted-upper-mid character. Run before amp input.
The original Randall RG100ES is a solid-state amp with a very clean, stiff, hi-fi response — no tube compression or breakup. Your Mini Jubilee is an 800-style tube amp that wants to break up and compress. To approximate the Randall's pristine response: keep gain extremely low (2), push treble higher than you'd expect (7) to get that crystalline attack, and scoop mids slightly (4) to offset the Jubilee's natural mid-forward voice. The EQ pedal is critical — without it you'll get 60% of the tone at best.
