Love me the Savage. My favorite amp ever. I generally dial it in with the gain at 12 oclock (I use a TS into it), bass and treble at 12 oclock, mids at 9 oclock, rough mode always, and contour on always. Sometimes I use the depth switch, TBH it's my least favorite part of the amp because I kind of wish there was a middle ground between it being on or not. I generally have it on, but sometimes the lowend is a bit much, but I guess I can just EQ the excess out.
