I've found that modeling amps like the mustang can be confusing as there a lot of options to play with. You may want to do a search on the web where you can find some downloadable presents for the mustang.

I recently bought myself a Balckstar HT1r. Very simple little tube practice amp. I've found that I can get some warm bluesy tones with this amp. I normally up the gain for an overdriven (but not distorted) sound and a little bit of reverb. Then adjust pick up settings for the tone I need.
