===== - Start with low gain and stack your OD + boost for dynamics (like mild crunch → solo). =====
* Delay in slapback mode (short time, low repeats) gives a killer Chicago or Texas blues vibe.
* Compressor first in chain helps sustain bends and fingerpicked runs—especially on single coils.
* Want Stevie Ray? → Strat + Tube Screamer + slight delay + reverb.
* Want Gary Clark Jr.? → Fuzz (like Big Muff or Tone Bender) can be subbed in place of OD.
