the lead patch is one of the closest yet, imo
the lead patch has three scenes. you'll need to back off your guitar volume control slightly and also roll off your tone control until it just starts to attenuate the highs. it'll be too gainy and bright, otherwise!
EDIT 2: here's a quick demo. it's crap, but it gives you some idea how they sound to me. no fizz or noise on the lead sound, as some have suggested.
it's pretty close to this (go to 3:30) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_dAV5yKJ4s
and the other references i'm using are from Prelude on Hard Hat Area, the intro to Countdown on None Too Soon and the solo on You Came Along from Chad Wackerman's 40 reasons
i have made tweaks to the lead patch - i've put presence on 5 and the bright knob on -8
i've also made tweaks to the clean patches - i've changed the cabs for fender ones and also added a fixed pitch shift an octave up, feeding a delay in a side chain
EDIT 3
adjusted some more parameters in the lead preset. it was too bassy with not enough upper mids, imo. here's the link...
