Tonemaster Twin Reverb setting...
My fellow forumites ....I recently purchased a Tonemaster Twin Reverb and am wondering as what tone settings you use. FYI I am playing a D-10 pushpull. Any info will be greatly appreciated.

I learned from experience yesterday that different instruments need different settings. I’m playing through a Tone Master Deluxe, which is fantastic with my ZB. But I was playing a Sierra, and the pickup isn’t as hot or fat-sounding as the ZB. So I was struggling with volume management and it was way too bright. I rolled the treble off from 7 to 5 and raised the gain from just under 4 to 5, and that Sierra started playing real nice. Just needed less treble and more gain to get up into that honky-tonk tonal space I like.
And I also don’t use the amp reverb much, at least not with steel. I use a Caroline Meteore lo-fi reverb pedal and a Caroline Kilobyte delay. They’re a lot more colorful-sounding.
