That sounds too gainy to be stock, to me.

A lot of that is coming from the power tubes. . . I get that amount of gain with the power amp cranked all the way up with 6V6's. The plexi gain doesn't have to be all the way up to get this much gain.

I got the guitar rig setup from the guy that recorded the clip. I'm going to see if I can replicate it.
 
Sweet. Did you get his module settings? (drive, bass, mid, treb, vol)
 
"It was a long time ago, don't remember, but master was not on 10- probably on 5 or so... try pre on 10, bright switch on, mids bass and treble all around 6 and work from there... I had the power tubes in the power amp cooking pretty good, the hotplate's bulb was glowing :)"

This is already very close to where I have it set already, and my master is always at 50% (except when I was trying to duplicate his tone. :) )
 
a eq with a mid boost may help push the module to the sound as well.thats what evh used.lol
