Black Parade Razor-Mid Drive — Fast Rhythm & Layered Leads
This preset follows the album’s documented Phat Cat-equipped Les Paul into Rob Cavallo’s JCM800, emphasizing the clear upper mids needed for the song’s rapid rhythm figures. Toro’s recorded approach relied heavily on layered straight-guitar tones, but no exact song control settings are public, so the values below are approximated from the Black Parade sessions.
