RECOMMENDED — not currently owned. Use as a mid-boost to tighten the Hot Rod's loose low end and push mids forward for Marshall-style bite
The Hot Rod Deluxe is naturally scooped and bright compared to Marshall-style amps. Mid pushed to 7 compensates for Fender's mid-scoop; treble dropped to 5 tames the 6kHz shelf. Your JH-600's EMG 81 bridge pickup is hot and compressed, so gain stays moderate at 5 to avoid mud. A TS-style pedal is strongly recommended to achieve the tight, focused crunch this tone requires — without it, the Hot Rod's drive channel will feel loose and undefined.
