i play a MIM strat through my Vibro Champ XD. I want to know what people who have played one think are the best settings to get a really bluesy tone. i was also wondering if i ccoudl get a Latin kind of tone (santana) if thats possible or a robby krieger (the doors) tone. Any opinions would be appreciated.

For the santana tone i'd head towards 10 or 11 on the amp select i.e the fender hotrod series sims.
For blues or robbie kreiger tone i'd be on 1 or 2 the champ and bassman settings. What i usualy do is use the amps reverb and plug in a tremolo and delay pedal in. That amp takes pedals really well, something DSP amps can struggle with.
My favourite settings are found in the champ, bassman and 60's british sims.

For Blues, I stick to the Tweeds, #2 and #3 with a little reverb. Set your guit to the neck p/up and bend those strings.

This. I use #3 with the treble dimed and the bass rolled off. It's magic - especially with the neck pickup.
