Why these settings

The Bandit's TransTube preamp stays glassy clean at low gain — keep it at 2 to preserve headroom. Mid pushed to 6 compensates for the Strat's natural mid-scoop and gives the tone body in a worship mix. The amp's built-in reverb is serviceable but the ME-70's Hall reverb gives the lush, ambient wash this style needs — use the ME-70 for time-based effects and bypass the amp's reverb entirely.

PRO TIPRoll the Strat's tone knob to 7 on the neck+middle position to tame ice-pick highs while keeping the glassy shimmer — and use your picking hand positioned over the neck pickup for a softer, rounder attack that sits in the ambient wash.
