Stage One Tone

Hey there pedal steel community. I have a Stage One pedal steel that I run into a 1980s Peavy Nash 400. I’ve been playing for six years now and have used various pedals but can’t quite dial in the tone I want. I love the tone of the old ShowBuds. This Stage One is lovely and honestly I may never “upgrade” unless I get a spare $7k. My question is, how can I get near the tone of a ShowBud with my current setup? The Stage One sounds like a Stage One.. I don’t know how to explain it but I can hear the tone of a Stage One. I heard the sound of a band outside of a bar in Nashville, and thought to myself “that’s a Stage One”, and it was a Stage One. This guitar has excellent movement and feel but how do I steer away from the tone? Pedal recommendations will help. Thank you!
