Try this, set your Strat for the bridge and middle pick-up combination, on the clean channel of your amp, set your treble about 7-9, bass 3-5, mid just enough to know it's on, turn your master volume all the way up, set your clean channel volume on 1 or 2 and keep turning it up until you get the volume level you want, add a little reverb, if that don't twang then something is broke or not plugged in, that ought to give you a bit of that Ed King/Sweet Home Alabama tone, turn the mid and channel volume up and the master down a little and you can start getting into that Mark Knopfler/Sultans of Swing type of sound, Happy Quacking.....
