Getting an over-driven tone.
You will first want to find the high gain channel on your amp. Or, if you only have one channel… TURN THAT SUCKER UP!!!
The degree of overdrive you want is a personal thing. Turning up the mids (mid range) helps the amp to overdrive any brittleness that maybe cased by turning the amp up and cranking the mids can be smoother out by rolling off some highs on the guitar controls. Remember we are using the amp and guitar as one unit. Team work here.
Bass controls on amps are used to compensate for when an amp is turned down. When cranking an amp, turn the bass down, or your tone will mush out. Adjust treble control to taste.
