OK, as some of you may know, 
uke: my lead tone is not the greatest. To be more precise, I do not have one; all I have is my rhythm tone.
For those brave souls willing to listen & critique, I've recorded some short examples (8, to be exact) of the amps I want to use. The clips are all with my C-1 Hellraiser, EMG 85 neck/81 bridge. The two amps are the 5150 & Uberschall models. I have a clip of each pickup, through each amp, with & without some Tube Screamer thrown on top. I left the cab & mic choices alone, as this already seemed like too much (and to my ears, the 57 mic model sounds like crap).
I also have pictures! This seemed like a better idea than writing out "bass-3:00, mid-2:00", etc. There are six images, showing each amp setting, including each pedal I'm using (gate, compression, TS, reverb) & the cab & mic choice. There is only one 5150 image, as everything except the amp settings is the same between it & the Uberschall. Same reverb, comp, etc.
I was going to post all of this stuff in a thread, but that would be way too much, so I've compressed all of it into a downloadable zip file. The images are jpg, the clips are vbr mp3. There's even an m3u playlist for your convenience!
Here's an image example:
And here's a clip example:
5150, Bridge pup, w/TS
Here is the zip file: CGord Lead Tone
Now, for those of you who question my ability to play lead, I'm right there with ya. But I'd like to leave 'em thinking "he can't play worth a damn, but that tone was smokin'!"
Many thanks in advance!
