Hi, looking for some advice on getting an 80s Post-Punk tone on my Mustang I. Looking for something like an early/mid Banshees sound.

I tried and experimenting with flanger, delay and reverb to get what I think is not too far from a classic post-punk sound. Here it is if you're interested.

Definitely use the '65 Twin with its cabinet... I've gotten a pretty close tone using this with the bright off, the SAG on 0 and the BIAS dimed. Use a decent amount of the reverb that comes with the Twin, along with either loads of chorus or flange... for a good Robert Smith lead also add a little overdrive and the filter delay. EQ to taste.

Sweet!!! Also the Brit 60s (VOX AC30) does a good job of getting the over driven post punk tone as well... pair with the marshall 4x12
