01Boss SD-1 Super Overdrive
Used in front of the amp as a clean boost to tighten low-end and add attack
02Boss NS-2 Noise Suppressor
Keeps rapid palm-muted stops dead silent without feedback
03MXR M108S Ten Band EQ
In front after noise gate: subtle V-shape scoop cutting muddy 500Hz while pushing 125Hz thump and 2k-4k bite
The Line 6 Spider IV 'Insane Red' model provides the high-gain saturation of a cranked 5150, kept at gain 6 so the SD-1 can tighten the transient response without fizz. The MXR 10-band EQ scoops out boxy 500Hz frequencies and bumps 125Hz and 2kHz-4kHz to match Chris Garza's EMG 81 attack on your Kramer's bridge humbucker. Note that the Spider IV 75 faceplate does not feature a dedicated Presence knob, so presence is nulled.
