Surely your knobs are volume and tone, not volume and reverb (nobody who plays guitar would buy a guitar with such controls... brr, a reverb knob :-) ) but apart from this there's not a general rule in guitar settings but your ears.
I play an american standard strat, other picks -> other sound (totally different) and I use a tube amp (40w fender hot rod deluxe)... don't know if your orange is a transistor amp or a tube one and this is very relevant too.
If you find yourself playing with massive basses and low trebles and feeling satisfied with this sound... well, that's ok
The one and only general rule I can suggest is: when your amp sounds your recording will too... with 0.05% confidence level (apologize, I am statistician :-) )

humbucker on my Les Paul, one for loudness and one for tone or reverb?
Turn the second on or off?
