The original track relies on bright single-coil bite through a British tube stack. To match that attack on your Epiphone Les Paul Special II humbuckers, push the Cube 40GX Treble and Middle while trimming the Bass to prevent muddiness. The Roland Cube 40GX lacks a physical presence knob so tone shaping is concentrated entirely in the 3-band EQ.
