Hi Fellow Seekers, I am looking for the best guitar amp effects simulator which has a characteristic Tube/ Valve Amp Sound as a priority. I have always used an old Fender 67 Super Reverb and minimal effects. Now , I am unable to lug amps and effects , so i am looking for the best vintage valve sound i can find. I am hoping there are guitarists in this forum who use a mac and guitar software live at gigs , who can recommend based on real experience. I have tried Overloud TH1 and personally I think the basic amp and cabinet sounds are not so good. I don't beleive in hiding shortcomings in tone with loads of overdrive , distortion and effects. Any real help based on real experience will be sincerely appreciated Thanks

The little Fender champion 500 is a good little amp for home recording. There is a Vox 5 watt amp that is a modeling amp that I quite like as well. There is also the Blackheart and that one is 3 or 5 watts switchable and that one gets quite loud....you could probably play over a drummmer with it.. Roland Cubes are pretty neat as well. Laney makes some good little 5 watt amps too.
