Mark III black stripe - crunch at low volume

[Seanboy]

Just got a Mark III black stripe yesterday, this is the first "real" amp I've ever owned. Im still trying to figure out all the settings. Can anyone help me dial in to get a good crunch at a low volume?

Thanks,
Seanboy

^^^ Those are good settings. Depending on how fat-sounding your pickups are, you might even go lower on the bass. From left to right, my knobs are set at:

9-9-1-4-*-6-5 (* = master volume to taste)

As you can see, I run the pre-gain a little hotter, and use less bass and less lead drive. adonixx probably gets a little more liquid sound with his settings than I do with mine.
