Polly
a good way to get an acoustic sound:
bass = 5 or just behind half way
middle = 7 or just above quarter past
treble is the same as the bass

Territorial Pissings
to get a totally evel sound for this one i take all the bass
out the lead and have the gain on full(well..have the gain on
high for all of them, total nirvana!) or just buy a boss ds-2
