Hi! Anyone remcommend a setting or preset for a very high gain tone to use in Bon Jovi's Wanted Dead or Alive solo. I'm using a Clapton Strat and a GDEC 30 Blues. Thanks and Rock on!

I didn't find any good "80's hair metal" presets in the GDEC or online, so I designed my own. (actually, the Vai Legacy preset is pretty good). Richie used JCM800s (British Crunch? British Steel?) with a Boss SD-1 (Stompbox on GDEC) back then... start there.

Also keep in mind he was using Seymour Duncan JB humbuckers- very high output pickups, plays a pretty big role in that tone. On my GDEC, I can nail it with my Charvel (that has the JB), but only come "reasonably close" with my tele using the same preset.
