    the maiden tone is fairly simple. humbuckers into marshall amp. find a british amp simulator on your processor. tweak the mids so you have a lot of midrange between 800 Hz and 1.5 kHz. try not to get a scratchy tone. not too much distortion either. perhaps you can use the compressor.

    i think you need a humbucker at the bridge on an alder strat.

    1. Select the Classic British amp
    2. Put the gain setting to around 3quarters
    3. Set the bass/low to around half, mids to again 3 quarters and treble/high to less than half.
    4. Add a delay (around 300-400ms) for leads.
    5. Use the bridge pickup for most parts.
    6. For wailing solos, or fast legatos, use the neck pickup.
    7. Play the same damn pentatonic licks again and again at faster and faster speed.

    Use UK80 amp.
    Rest all you'll have to tweak to your desire.

    You use delay primarily during the solos.
    As I said keep it at 300-400ms for most cases.
