Floods solo amp settings — Boss GT-1
The Pantera guitar tone for “Floods solo”, dialed in for a Boss GT-1 with a Jackson JS22 Dinky. Studio version, The Great Southern Trendkill (1996) — iconic outro solo
Washburn Dime 333 (Seymour Duncan '59 neck) → Randall RG-100ES solid-state head (Gain channel) → Korg AX30G (Chorus + Delay)
| Knob | Setting (0–10) |
|---|---|
| Gain | 6 |
| Bass | 6 |
| Mid | 7 |
| Treble | 5 |
| Presence | 4 |
| Reverb | 3 |
| Master | 6 |
01FX1 Block (Compressor)
Placed pre-amp to add singing sustain to the neck pickup notes
02MOD Block (Chorus)
Post-amp (FX loop position) to emulate Dimebag's subtle Korg spatial modulation
03DELAY Block
Post-amp, set delay time to ~380ms for ambient trailing repeats
Unlike Dime's scooped rhythm tone, the Floods solo relies on a warm, mid-forward neck pickup voice with thick sustain. On the GT-1's SOLID STACK model, mids are pushed to 7 while treble is rolled back to avoid the fizzy harshness typical of stock ceramic pickups on the JS22. The compressor block extends sustain without oversaturating the gain stages.
