Getting frustrated with my amp...

hi everyone,

I bought a Roland Cube 20gx just a few days ago and I'm trying to set it up properly and whatever I do, I don't get the sound that I want to...

I'm exercising the following song at the moment and I cannot make the amp sound anywhere close to this:

I attached a picture of the amp to give you an idea what options I have (in case you dont know the amp).

My guitar is a Yamaha 212VFM without any additional equipment like pedals etc.

There's also a guy on youtube that has the cube 20gx and played that song, but even that I cannot achieve somehow:

Just a shot in the dark here (based on my own amp) but try this:

Bass: 6
Mid: 5
Treble: 6
EFX: Off
Delay: Mid Warm-Side
Reverb: Mid Spring-Side
LEAD: Metal

Give that a shot and let me know how it goes.

Thanks a lot for your input :)

I've spent the whole day experimenting with the amp and now I'm pretty close to that sound and a happy man :-)
