Use the distortion on the amp, not the pedal. And turn the gain, treble and bass up full, and take out all the mids.

there's absolutely nothing wrong with that old school. that was one of the greatest albums :P
scoop the mids on everything. make your treble a little higher.. and do use your pedal, and your jsm isn't gonna sound like that on it's own.
