01Modulated Filter (RECOMMENDED — Envelope Filter or Auto-Wah style)

RECOMMENDED — not currently owned. A Boss AW-3, EHX Blurst, or similar gets the signature filter sweep. Use the VT40X built-in 'Clyde' wah effect in auto mode as a partial substitute — access via Tone Room software.

Why these settings

Your GRG121 has humbuckers versus the likely single-coil original — roll tone to 7 to tame high-end harshness and add mid +1 to compensate for the humbucker's darker voice versus a Strat. The VT40X AC30 model delivers the chime and compression of the original's clean platform. Gain stays moderate (5) because this tone is not heavily saturated — the crunch is edge-of-breakup, not high-gain.

PRO TIPThe signature sound of this track is the modulated filter sweep — without that pedal, use the VT40X's built-in Clyde wah set to a fixed mid position via Tone Room, or enable the 'Comp' effect lightly to approximate the percussive, compressed attack.
