Why these settings

GMX 212's Vintage channel approximates Marshall voicing but stays cleaner than a cranked JMP, so the OD100 in overdrive mode supplies the warm breakup. Your active EMG 707s run hotter than Scott's passive humbuckers — gain dropped 2 points from a passive-equipped Marshall equivalent, treble pulled back 1 to tame the active pickup brightness. Mid pushed to 7 to retain Les Paul-style warmth against the Schecter's tighter low-end.

PRO TIPRoll your guitar's tone knob to 7 instead of wide open — this softens the active pickup's high-end spike and gets closer to the vintage PAF smoothness of Scott's Les Paul.
