Best Modern Tones

[TheGreatGreen]

CAN'T GO WRONG WITH A GARY TONE..

That tone is awesome, had to look it up. It's a Marshall Jubilee Reissue boosted with an SD-1 and Gary's sig model Pro Tone Mid Boost pedal, with a BBE Sonic Maximizer in the loop, into "a whole bunch of cabs in the studio."

Great tone for what they're doing.

IMO, some of the Neural DSP Archetype plugins capture modern guitar tones. The Petrucci and Henson for example; they make modern guitar sounds I actually like to hear.

Another plugin I like (and is my top fav), is PolyChrome DSP McRocklin Suite - it does modern but can also do '80s and earlier/later.

What I hear, and consider modern guitar tones, that I don't like, are tones drenched in shimmering delays and reverbs that lose all definition. A guitar straight into nearly any tube amp would dominate those wispy ethereal tones.

Good example of Archetype Tim Henson:

I love polyphia bit their tones are not what I’m into . I love the songs a lot . Especially with Jason Richardson
