I set up my controls with the master volume at 12, bass around 8 (for singles and 6 for 'buckers), treble around 7, mids 5 and prevolume at 3 to 4. This gives me a full sounding clean platform to add OD pedals (I use a barber small fry). I don't use the fat switch much at all (only with a tele going straight in, no pedals).

Thanks ,I think I'll order one pronto.
