Why these settings

The Fireball 100 Lead channel carries excessive modern high-gain compression for this pop-rock track, so running the Clean channel with Gain Boost engaged yields the open, punchy British-style crunch of Taylor's JCM2000. Compensate for the Fender Player Strat's thinner single-coil bridge pickup by keeping Bass at 5, Mids bumped to 6 for punch, and Treble capped at 6 with the Bright switch adding the top-end chime. Bottom switch should remain off to keep the low end tight and percussive without modern metal sub-bass.

PRO TIPPick aggressively near the bridge with a medium-heavy pick (around 0.88mm to 1.0mm) using brisk, palm-muted downstrokes on the verses to get the distinctive punchy, bouncy attack before letting chords ring wide open on the chorus.
