01ME-90 OD/DS Block (T-SCREAM)
Used as a clean pre-gain tightener in front of the AIRD preamp
02ME-90 NS (Noise Suppressor)
Essential for stopping high-gain hum during syncopated staccato riffs
Sabaton's signature rhythm tone relies on high-gain modern European amp modeling tightened by an overdrive with zero drive and high level. On your Boss ME-90, select the 5150 Drive AIRD preamp block and push the midrange to 7 to replicate the aggressive cut of Tommy Johansson and Chris Rörland's mix. Your PRS Custom 24's bridge humbucker supplies the necessary punch; keep both volume and tone wide open for maximum attack.
