As a rule of thumb, if your guitar tone is getting lost, try turning down a competing instrument and/or competing frequencies in those instruments. Be willing to do the same to make those other instruments sound better, too, by adjusting your guitar rig's EQ, etc. Giving similar thought to how parts are arranged and how dynamics are used will help greatly as well.

Does this go with as your amp gets louder, the bass EQ setting should be lower?
I think Joe runs his bass setting on 8 or 9 hmm

It depends on the amp.... Generally with a Fender style amp or a vintage Marshall that is the case... Less bass with more volume equals more midrange and a better sound... The only amp that doesn't work like that.... Guess who,...  the Marshall Silver Jubilee... Feel free to run the bass up to 10!!! Its just the way the preamp is set up...
