Why these settings

The Katana Gen 3's Brown amp type emulates the high-gain Marshall crunch used on the track. Dialing mids to 7 and treble to 6 captures the sharp 90s alt-rock bite without the harshness of a digital top end. Activating the onboard booster provides the tight saturation of the original Rat/JCM stack without requiring external pedals.

PRO TIPDig in aggressively near the bridge with a heavy pick (1.0mm+) to accentuate the percussive, raw grunge attack in the main driving riff.
