Is there anyone that has a Fender Deluxe or a Vox AC30 that has tried to simulate those sounds on a Lonestar Special? If so, could you share your settings?

Yeah, I actually did a head-to-head (ha) comparison last week between the LSS and AC30CCH heads (in an effort to determine if they were "close enough" for me to sell the AC30CCH). This is what I ended up with before my ears got too fatigued to be able to finish the job:
LSS C2 (like Vox top boost channel):
drive 1:30
gain 9:00 (which the LSS typically sets gain > drive, setting drive > gain creates a more Vox-like tone IMO)
treble 4:00
mid 10:00
bass 10:00
presence 3:00
master 10:30
15w
normal (not thick) voicing
Didn't get a chance to mess with the reverb any (since my LSS arrived with a DOA reverb tank), though I do think it's cool that both amps have warm/bright voicing options for the 'verb.
Try these out and let me know what you think... if you can improve on 'em, let me know.
