Primary gain source — amp set clean to avoid mud; high Dist + Tone mimics the fizzy, saturated lo-fi texture
The Champion 20 has no mid or presence knob — only Gain, Bass, Treble, and Volume on its faceplate. Amp stays on the clean voice with low gain because your DS-1 supplies all the distortion; stacking amp dirt with the DS-1 would create undefined mush. Treble at 6 compensates for the Strat's natural brightness while letting the DS-1's fizz cut through. The original's crushed, low-fidelity character comes from digital processing you cannot fully replicate live — the DS-1 at high Dist gets you into the aggressive saturation ballpark.
