Here are the 3 presets I use most of the time. I'm pretty sure the voodoo tele thing above was recorded with the Wag Deluxe Hot preset - I do know it was w/my baja tele on the neck pickup.

As far as tweaking, what I've found for practice volume levels is I usually go to the Advanced Amp settings and crank the bias to +50% and use LESS on the MATCHED setting. These settings seem to liven things up a bit.
I don't use the amp live with a band, only for quiet practice and direct USB recording. I have played out with the amp, but only solo. I did practice with it once and I felt I needed to tweak the settings to get it to sound better with other bass and drums going; unfortunately the M2 doesn't lend itself to knob fiddling (IMO) in a live setting. I would probably attempt to play out with a M3 if I had one, just out of curiosity.
I do think there are great tones to be had with the mustang amp - for the price, they really are great. They DO require some fiddling though, but that's part of the fun (IMO).
