GETCHA! (with Nic Cester, Jet & Chad Smith) amp settings — Marshall JCM900
The Thomas Raggi guitar tone for “GETCHA! (with Nic Cester, Jet & Chad Smith)”, dialed in for a Marshall JCM900 with a Squier Bullet Stratocaster. Studio version, 'GETCHA!' single (2024) — Thomas Raggi's lead guitar parts
Marshall JMP/Plexi-style amp (Raggi's typical live rig includes Marshall JMP heads and Orange Rockerverb), Gibson Les Paul with humbuckers, minimal pedals — tone is primarily amp-driven crunch with single coil texture from Nic Cester's rhythm parts
| Knob | Setting (0–10) |
|---|---|
| Gain | 6 |
| Bass | 5 |
| Mid | 7 |
| Treble | 6 |
| Presence | 5 |
| Reverb | 0 |
| Master | 5 |
The JCM900 is gainier and tighter than Raggi's vintage JMP/Plexi rigs, so gain is set moderate (6) rather than cranked — the 900's preamp saturates earlier. Mid pushed to 7 compensates for your Strat's naturally scooped single-coils versus his Les Paul humbuckers. Treble at 6 prevents ice-pick harshness from the single coils while retaining bite. Presence conservative at 5 — the 900 gets fizzy above 6.
