Feedback, presence and resonance....again

Feedback, presence and resonance....again
I've built a Bassman 5F6-A clone, well almost  
I had only one input so I paralelled the first  
triode a'la Chieftain with 100k plate and 1k5  
at cathode and bypassed with cap, I used the  
bright cap and attenuation grid resistor 270k  
I rewired the tone stack D-wise which I think  
gave me more control over the sound.  
Now I have two questions  
The original circuit uses 27k from the 2 ohm  
tap and a 5k pot with a 100nF cap, I have  
2,4 and 8 ohm taps and use the 8 ohm tap  
I tried to solder the feedback to both the 8  
and the 2 ohm tap and it squealed a lot, what  
values shall I use.  
If I instead wanted a Resonance pot what  
values then.  
I'll post a schematic when I've downloaded  
a more fresh version of explorer.  
Thanks
