01Boss MT-2 Metal Zone
Using MT-2 as a low-gain lead boost rather than metal distortion - keep Dist LOW to avoid fizz; Mid Freq around 1kHz for vocal-like quality
Lukather's Mark IIC+ liquid lead has prominent mids and smooth top-end, while the Bandit is tighter and more aggressive. Pushed mid to 7 and cut treble/presence to tame the Bandit's solid-state edge. The MT-2 at very low distortion settings with boosted mids approximates the singing sustain; rolling your tone knob to 6 softens the Jackson's bright ceramic pickups toward Lukather's warmer Duncan voicing.
