Megadeth "Rust In Peace" Era. Dave Mustaine Tone.

As most fans will know, Dave Mustaine used a Marshall JMP-1 preamp into a Marsha ll Dual monoblock EL-34 power amp during this era. However, the highest gain Ma rshall available with POD 2.0 is the JCM 800 which lacks the attack and high mid range response of the JMP-1. So, here is my attempt to match this famous tone. Amp Model: Modern Hi-Gain (Soldano X88R Preamp) Effects: Delay & Flanger 1 (For Solos) Cabinet: Brit Hi-Gain #1 or #3 (Marshall 4x12 with Vintage 30's or Greenbacks) Drive: 70% Bass: 25% Mid: 30% (Rhythm) 70% (Lead) Treb:95% Pres: 75% Chan Vol: 100% Reverb: 20% Dist: Off Drive: On EQ: On
