Chuggy pop punk sound. I have a jcm800 2203 and a squier strat. Should thicker strings be used to get this sound? Tips for amp settings/pedals would be appreciated.

You can get close, kinda
but this is a recto tone IIRC
gain at 7, BMT at 5-4-6, master until it "opens up" presence at 6
If that's not enough gain use an overdrive in front with the volume all the way up and the gain all the way down, tone knob at 5 or 6

I've been doing some fucking around with it, and i believe its definitely a recto on the recording for the intro
He might have layered some marshall over during the choruses, but those palm mute parts def sound recto
this is as close as i can get

That's the vintage/orange channel btw, not the modern/red
If i'm hearing it correctly, it's got a little more "flub" and woodiness in the recording which i associate with the orange

that’s using the eq settings you mentioned?

No, that's using a kemper profile of a mesa boogie rectifier
the eq settings are just where I would start with an 800 to try and get close
Honestly i think the 800 is going to be too "tight" for that exact tone
