Why these settings

The Orange Crush 20 is warmer and less scooped than the ADA MP-1's clean channel, so mid stays high at 7 to preserve the cut-through presence. Your Strat's single coils are brighter and lower output than Carpenter's JB humbuckers — treble dropped to 5 and tone knob rolled to 6 to compensate for the extra sparkle. Gain at 3 adds slight hair without breaking into crunch.

PRO TIPThe chorus effect IS this tone — without it, you're just playing a clean riff. If you can't get a chorus pedal yet, your DS-1 with Dist at 0, Tone at 5, Level at 7 can act as a clean boost to add slight compression and presence, but it won't replicate the shimmer.
