John I had a fender contact and got my device early. I have been able to gig with it. Interestingly and maybe not surprisingly I set up 3 boards with Fender Princeton and Superreverb, the EVH on the blue setting, a marshall set up, and a vox set up. Pretty much put the usual cast of pedals in front and behind them. I tweeked all of them to get rid of this hiss issue and to brightening the tone. Global equalizer is handy. The effect was that live in a cover band I nailed the tone and most important the inspiration of playing in front of these favored amps. Not selling off my amps and pedals yet but really I think this nails the needs of 90% of guitarist. I ran a reference amp and through the stage monitor. Honestly the stage monitor was great! I ran stereo to the board and got some left right for several songs..Mick Ronson on MoonAge Daydream creates this amazing circling effect or at least tries to on the live version. I found this easy to set up and indeed I was bringing the spaceship! So I think I am in love! Thank you Fender..

I can't get over how good the Fender amps sound. I'm a blues guitarist so I can't really speak to any of the metal sounds, etc. Honestly, the Fender amps will most likely be all I need. However, the Vox amp sounds great, too. Also, I don't gig at this point in my life so all I've been doing is playing through it at my house. Folks that speak about the price cause me to shake my head. I own and have owned boutique amps that rivaled the price I paid for the TMP and I bought those years ago. May not work for some, but works for me.

Sorry if this is a dumb question: you said that you could use this as a pedal board run into a "flat response" amp. Are there any amps out there that are better at this than others? I get that you would level all of your EQ settings at like 5(?) to flatten it from that perspective, but are there any head/speaker combos that are better than others for a flat response. I sort of have the microphone analogy in my head where some mics color your sound more than others. And I know some amp speakers have different profiles. In any case, thank you for this and everything you do John! I'm a huge fan of your playing, your videos and your writing! (the first thing I read when I get my PG magazine every month!).

Presets on those but you need to tweak for your hands, guitar and amp. Thankfully they made this pretty easy with the dial in feature for each amp and effect. You then save and perhaps retitle it for your tweak. There is a lot of patches up but at least for the moment I think I can match most of them better. I live in LA and I met the Fender video guy at an event. He says they have a team in place and are going to provide quarterly updates that address the real world feedback. I have gigged with it and during sound check I made some changes that are so intuitive to the pedal chain with an EQ pedal and choosing a different drive. Nailed it. My fractal was a nightmare if you need to adjust on the fly. I am listing a lot of pedals and probably some amps on Reverb..

The new generation of the GTX amps without a cab. Many of the menus look exactly the same. How does it sound on the hard stuff? Hard meaning complex signals or if you adjust and save a profile then copy and edit it, does it respond the same or get nonlinear?
@QuoVadis889 ай бұрын
Not GTX. TMP is a different league. 6,000 IR's for accurate sound. If you have used the Tone Master amps, it's far beyond the GTX stuff. When you turn the volume up on the Tone Master Deluxe Reverb it behaves like a tube amp. I have a hand-wired '64 Custom Deluxe Reverb tube amp and and Tone Master Deluxe Reverb with the updates. On both amps, up to 5 on the volume dial is clean. After 5, the loudness does not change but the SAG, compression, gain, overdrive pushes the sound into wonderful territory, all musical. So linear up to 5. After 5, non-linear as on a real tube amp. The Tone Master will produce even-order harmonics as a real tube amp will. It's not transistor distortion which produces terrible-sounding odd-order harmonics.

I'm a 59 yr old blues guy playing 40+ years that WAS a tube amp purist. I was first introduced to the world of amp modeling with the Strymon Iridium during covid lockdown and haven't looked back. I went all in on the Fender TMP Christmas 2023 and yet to even scratch the surface. I've always loved the Fender iconic amps and the ones in the TMP are nothing short of amazing. I'm running mine through a tonemaster FR-10. I went with the 10 because of portability and I dig the tightness of a 10" speaker. In all honesty, when the TMP arrived I plugged into one of the presets and wasn't so sure so I went directly to making my own without reading the manual. Way better and couldn't be easier. After that, various KZbin videos showed how to utilize some of the different settings, which only improved it. It really nails the character of the Fender iconic amps. The thing has a plethora of amps, speakers/speaker cabinets, mics that you can actually place wherever on the speakers, etc. The technology is incredible. I was never really a pedal guy, so it's opened a whole new world in all of that, as well. In fact, I recently fired up a boutique tweed pro tube amp I paid more for than this thing and felt IT was missing something. That being said, I feel I'm getting the best tone I've ever had with this new technology. So there you have it.

Years of R&D went into those amps and the TMP to get you to the point where it's so close, you can't tell. Extra features that I love is how good the TMP sounds through studio headphones. You'll play more and become a better guitar player, guaranteed.

On the other hand, 1700 bucks gets you dozens of amps (will be hundreds soon) whereas buying each of the amps themselves will cost you at least that for each one. $1700 for all the amps you could ever need + an audio interface for recording and making live sound mixing infinitely easier vs $1700 for one amp. Idk seems like an easy choice to me, and this is coming from a guy that loves tube amps and was a tube purist for the longest time. The difference in sound between tube and digital (provided you're running it through a good FRFR speaker or cab to push some air) has become so negligible at this point that the convenience that modeling offers is just too good to overlook anymore IMO.
