The ZENY CYD-10 is an ultra-compact practice amp with only Gain, Treble, Bass, and Volume controls (no mid, presence, or reverb controls physically exist on its panel). Its small solid-state drive circuit gets raspy and thin when cranked, so keep the amp clean and use a recommended BD-2 style overdrive to achieve the authentic 90s alt-rock crunch. The RG550's humbuckers are hotter than Bea's offset single-coils, so the in-between bridge+middle position provides the necessary clarity and chime.
