Hi newbie here, getting back into my guitar playng after 40 yrs out. I know amp settings are a tremendously personal field, but could someone please help me cut some of the trial & error?
I own a Sidekick65 reverb, I have a tubescreamer copy & a Joyo compressor pedal. and a bullet strat. I'm trying to get a smooth sustained overdrive, but failing miserably. please could anyone suggest some settings I could try?

Try a different drive pedal and lose the compressor.
The Tube Screamer works best with a dimed Super Reverb.
My son gets great results using a Strat, Fulltone OCD and my old Sidekick 35 Reverb.
