The original tone was tracked direct into a rack preamp with a Blues Driver and Fuzz Face, giving it a crisp, hi-fi DI top end rather than tube-cabinet warmth. On the compact Egle G15 practice amp without pedals, engage the onboard drive channel around 6 to recreate that fizzy, saturated grit while cutting bass to prevent 8-inch speaker flub. Adding an external BD-2 will let you run the amp clean to nail the exact direct-in sparkle.
