RECOMMENDED — not currently owned (place in front to shape the Dimebag smile curve)
The MG30GFX's OD2 channel provides the necessary solid-state clipping and aggressive upper-mid bite of Dimebag's classic Randall setup. Mids are pulled down to 2 to replicate the Furman/MXR extreme mid-scoop while keeping bass tight at 7 and treble at 8 to simulate the high-output Bill Lawrence L500XL attack. If you acquire a dedicated EQ pedal later, run the amp mids slightly higher and use the pedal's pre-distortion scoop to carve the core frequencies cleanly.
