I have been using a GT8 for years and I think GT8 and GT10 maybe aren't very different when it comes to programming. Some time ago - after listening to EFTP - I tried to make the Apache echo, and I think I came close.

I always add a small amount of compression when playing lead. I just fooled around with the echo - not with the sound (treble, bass etc.).
For years I have been very satisfied with using the Boss units, but there seems to be a lack of interest ind making good Shadows echoes for them. For a gigging musician (playing many other things than Shadows) he Boss is a great unit. If you make 3 or 4 good echoes, you can play any Shadows number, and 95% of the audience will find that you are an excellent Hank - but when it really matters then Charlie's EFTP is the best (and you can make a loop with the Boss and eg. Yamaha MagicStomp).
Now if all people that have made reasonable Shadows echoes would tell us, then life would be easier.
Best regards
