Why these settings

The HB-20R's overdrive channel approximates the JCM800's preamp saturation. Gain at 3 keeps the tone on the edge of breakup for the ballad's dynamic response—clean when picking softly, slight grit when digging in. Mid pushed to 7 compensates for the HB-20R's more scooped voicing versus the naturally mid-forward JCM800. Treble rolled to 5 tames the HSS Strat's brightness that the original Jabs setup had with humbuckers in later years.

PRO TIPFor the iconic intro arpeggios, use your fingers (not a pick) on the neck pickup with tone rolled to 7—this softens the attack and gets that pillowy, singing sustain Jabs achieves. When the solo hits, switch to bridge humbucker, roll tone to 10, and bump gain to 4-5 for more bite.
