That's a good rig you got man!
Aside from the ubiquitous "treble 10 mids 5 bass 0" and the slight variations on it which exist everywhere on this site, I would recommend getting familiar with a concept we discussed a while ago (maybe Jon S' thread? I can't find it right now cuz I'm on my phone.) That concept is Jerry's picking style. He picks closer to the bridge pickup than a lot of people seem to expect. Try to hit the strings directly over the edge of the bridge pickup (the side closest to the neck).
Use inflexible picks. Jerry used Fender heavys and then graphite 2mm picks (Dunlop Adamas 2mm... Have your folks order you a pack sometime, they make a pretty noticeable difference in sound.)
High action like Jerry had will give you the plucky tone and the super sensitive and accurate vibrato & string bends.
Replace the speaker in your amp with a D, K, or E120. That will get you like 50% or more towards Jerry's tone. The speaker MATTERS. Where the rubber meets the road.
Adjusting your fretting and picking technique accordingly to Jerry's and then thinking about making your next equipment upgrade the $150-$200 JBL speaker will put you on a solid and affordable path toward sounding and playing more like Jerry.
