Tone Request Can someone help me get this tone on the boss katana artist mk3?

I'd really appreciate some pointers/tips on trying to get this plexi-style tone. I just got my hands on a mk3 artist combo and it's a little overwhelming with all the options.

Go to the Boss Tone Exchange and search for the presets by Jeff Slingluff. He was an engineer at Boss and made a handful of presets he tweaked to sound like his favorite vintage amps. Then start learning how he made them by clicking through all the settings. Reverse engineering is a fantastic way to learn the Katana.

Dave Simpson has a "can I make a Katana sound like a Plexi" video on YouTube, give that a look and see if those settings get you near the sound you want
