Emulates Dime's Furman PQ-3 / MXR 6-band mid scoop

Dimebag used solid-state Randall amps pushed by an extreme parametric mid-scoop at around 800Hz–1kHz with aggressive high-end boost. On the NUX MG-300, the Fireman model provides tight, fast-tracking saturation; pairing it with the internal 6-Band EQ recreates his signature scooped EQ curve and razor-sharp bite on your Infinity R bridge humbucker.
