Your JCM900 High Gain channel delivers the Marshall bark Thomas Raggi gets from pushed Plexis with an OCD. Gain at 6 provides the crunchy saturation without mud—the JCM900 runs hotter than a Plexi so less gain is needed. Mid at 7 preserves the Strat's cut-through aggression. Presence at 7 adds the bite without ice-pick harshness on maple-fretboard single coils. Tone knob rolled to 7 tames the Bullet Strat's brightness while keeping definition.
