[@dreemsy249]

It’s half off right now everyone. I just bought it yesterday and love it. I’m not a professional and if I had to explain my skill level. I can’t read music. I couldn’t play a song start to finish if you put a gun to my head. But I have enough skill to sloppily sweep pick a couple of scales. And I enjoy writing my own riffs. So even if you are like me and not very good, for $81 it’s incredible and I would recommend it. This is coming from a simpleton. All you nerds and gods out there would probably be watching me flip all of the knobs and be like “Nooo, you can’t do that!” And I would be all like 🤤 Anyway, I’m happy with my purchase after 2 days

[@ovivan79]

Such a great plug-in. I've got quite a few of them now and love all of them. But I have to admit, the extra features like Transpose and Metronome feel like a must have now. I literally close the other plug-ins and revert back to the Archetype: Petrucci because those features are just killer for my practicing. Neural DSP: Please update these into all the other plug-ins.

[@klutch4198]

I got this the day it came out. I've always respected Petrucci, even though I don't really jam out Dream Theater. But let me tell ya, this plugin is incredible and I use it many hours each day. I've been using it learn to a lot of new stuff recently like Intervals, Polyphia and Mark Knopfler and this works for EVERYTHING. Amazing, thanks John and NeuralDSP!

Bought it day one and damn, it blew my mind. Still does, honestly! It really puts all other guitar plugins to shame with the level of versatility and the high-degree of quality. I can't believe how good the presets are as well; I've only done a little bit of tweaking to some of them, but frankly you can play most of these straight "out of the box" and it'll sound killer. That Barstool Warrior preset that Petrucci made is my go-to crunch sound now!

[@DanielBobke]

I just got this on their 50% off Black Friday sale...it is fantastic. To sound even close to John Petrucci is a dream. The next Archetype I would like to see...Aaron Marshall. He is using the Quad Cortex live now - it would be awesome to have a plug-in for his rig.

[@lucasperez9229]

This is absolutely an amazing plug-in. It has a very unique sound and makes you want to play. I just hooked up a boss ev-1 wl and an fs7 to control the wah and some another parameters, talk about awesome. The wah is killer. Great job Neural DSP/ John Petrucci. 👍🏼

I’ve been using the Nolly and the Plini since last year and, honestly, I think with these two you can go really far. Now, yesterday, I started the trial on the JP and, in no time at all, I started creating new sounds just like that. Maybe it’s just the hype, but this thing does wonders. And as someone said before, the transpose should be a feature for all the plug-ins. Great job there Neural and JP.

[@MarvelJAM]

I have to say that Mr. Petrucci's commentary on the needs, journey, and use of the final product brings honesty to this plugin. It helps it stand out in an oversaturated metal Neural focus. I plan to pick it up and try to see how far away from his tone I can take the product. A metronome as well for practice. Genius, always for practicing

[@arpeggioblues5924]

This plugin is fantastic.. I'll not use any other plugin in the DAW.. nice part is you can record the guitar track.. then go back and fine tune the plugin as you listen to what you recorded.. Love it.. Thanks for doing it JP.. (sounds great with the majesty, btw). I've used 4 other guitar modeling plugins, this is the only one that sounds great, and it's possible (finally) to get a sustained note, that doesn't crackle up at the lower dB. If you don't at least try the demo.. you're missing out. Great work, John.. "If all the world is a stage, then life is just a Theater of Dreams.. " See ya: Feb 8th/seattle/and back stage..

[@guitarheaven1747]

I've got the Archetype Gojira, but I bought this one too because it just got a lot better lead playing capabilities, and the sounds are a lot more versatile, less specialized as well (and warmer, thicker, which I always like)

[@xplanet2112]

@@guitarheaven1747 Absolutely this one is a great product, and I think the Archetypes are the best value for money. I really like the spread feature on the Petrucci especially for cleans and ambient noodling, the two clean amps are great too. I have Nolly and Gojira - the more a delve into the Nolly plug the better it gets but the Gojira is so brutal. It stands to reason that all these amps offer something different which is great but I’m trying to avoid option paralysis… he says! ha ha.

[@wesleytrott6397]

In my opinion, it's Neural DSP's best plugin to date. I've been using Archetype Nolly for a very long time now, but I after buying the Petrucci plugin, it's all I use. Of course, the Nolly plugin still has utility. Especially if you want that 5150 sound. But if you want that thick, rich Mesa Boogie sound, Petrucci is way to go.

Neural is reaching a new height with this plugin. Capturing favorite tone from one of the famous and talented guitarist in the world is just mind blowing. I try the demo and it really sounds good albeit need more tweaking than archtype Gojira. The feature such as changing tuning and parametric EQ are equally good. Other guitarists, which I suggest for the next archtype plugin, are Slash, John Mayer, Dave Mustaine or Metallica.
