RECOMMENDED — not currently owned; essential for razor-sharp industrial staccato palm mutes
The MG30CFX lacks a physical presence control, so the treble is pushed to 7 on the OD2 channel to emulate the cutting upper-register bite of Richard Kruspe's Rectifier. The mids are slightly scooped to 4 to capture the cold, mechanical industrial profile without losing body on your Harley Benton humbuckers. Keep the amp strictly dry with reverb at 0 to maintain punchy, robotic riff definition.
