Amp: Tight high-gain (J-rock/post-hardcore) — exact rig not documented

Song-specific gear is not documented, so these are an educated J-rock/post-hardcore estimate: a tight, aggressive high-gain crunch (Strat-style or humbucker) that drops to clean, melodic passages, with overdrive/chorus/delay. Mids present, treble up, hard-gated chugs.
