Why these settings

Vito Bratta tracked through hot-rodded Marshall rigs with an aggressive top-end bite and razor-sharp clarity. Your Epiphone Les Paul Special II humbuckers have warmer, thicker low-mids than his maple-neck Superstrat, so keep the Pocket Master's bass at 5 and push treble to 7. The Sonicake Pocket Master lacks a physical presence pot on its basic 3-band amp block, so presence is nulled while mid and treble deliver the necessary 80s harmonic bite.

PRO TIPVito's rhythm execution relies on precise palm-muting right against the bridge saddles combined with hard, articulate alternate picking to make the intricate arpeggiated riffs ring cleanly.
