I don't think it distorts at all it just get's extremly bright if you crank up the presence. I run the amp hot too, master volume and preamp around 8.Very cool, Dozin! Is it tube or solid state? Assuming SS.
If so presence is simply higher than treble and there we agree.
But if tube it is negative feedback from the powertubes.
In that case it does have tone control but also other 'sounds'.
