Playa, LATS, thanks guys, thats exactly what I am looking for...I sat and tried to dial in the best tone I could get out of my new Ibanez Thermion head today...I got a great I started much the same way as Playa suggested, but with all of the knobs at zero, not twelve, so maybe this could change things....as it turns out, I generally play with a lot less gain than most cats, but I will still try your suggestion.

thanks so much Playa, and Lats, for an article written long ago, that is exactly what I have been hunting for.

cheers
