RECOMMENDED — not owned. Use to tighten low-end flub in Drop A tuning
The MG30GFX lacks a presence control, so treble is boosted to 7 to capture the sharp pick attack of high-output active pickups. OD-2 provides the cascaded high-gain saturation of Jim and Mick's 5150 and Rivera rigs while keeping mids around 4 to avoid muddy low-mid buildup in Drop A. For the clean intro and verses, switch the amp to the Clean channel and select the neck pickup.
