02ProCo RAT2
Primary gain source; keeps bite without excessive fizz into the solid-state input

04Boss DD-7 Digital Delay
Set to short slap/rhythmic repeats (approx 180ms)
The Frontman 10G has only gain, bass, and treble controls on a 6-inch speaker, so the Rat 2 serves as the sole gain stage while keeping the amp channel clean to prevent thin, buzzy overdrive. Setting the Rat's Filter to 6 tames high-end harshness that the small speaker exaggerates, while the Dyna Comp and CH-1 replicate the 12-string chime of Marty Willson-Piper's tone. Split the coils on your PRS S2 or select the middle blend position to lean away from thick humbucker warmth toward jangly single-coil clarity.
