Right on, Spacey. I'll have to check out the demo. If anyone else buys this who are smarter than I (AKA everyone) please post a review. And on a related topic, are any of you guys using the Acme Bar Gig sims successfully? They are 32bit and I've heard it's had problems with bitbridge but others have had success using JBridge. I've never tried this bridge stuff before but I've heard nothing but good things about those sims and would most definitely like to add them to the arsenal if they work... especially considering they free (which I find odd). Cheers and thanks, Spacey.

It's a very old plug-in. I'd like to believe that modeling technologies have actually improved in the last 6 or 7 years.

EDIT - make that even longer than that. I remember reading about it in 2004 I think...

@Rain... Acme Bar Gig or the one in Spacey's link? The one in his link seems to have a 64 bit version which must be somewhat recent. BTW thanks for your input in the collaboration thread. I got busy with other stuff and never updated it. Cheers.

Nomad Factory. It's probably been ported, but the software itself was release sometime before 2004, AFAIK. Doesn't mean it isn't good, just that, it's possible that it isn't entirely up par w/ to more recent equivalents. I'm not a huge fan of NF plug-ins, anyway. 

The ABG stuff seems to be cutting edge - a bunch of tone maniacs w/ a passion, really dedicated to creating the best possible sound in an amp sim. Maybe someday if they port to Mac, I'll be able to try it for myself.

Thanks again, Rain. I'm gonna check out the demo if I can find the time. The ABG stuff however is really piquing my interest. Just gotta read up on this bridging mayhem so I don't screw something up. BTW I used to head out to Montreal and QC in general as often as I could with the bands. It was always my favorite gigging destination so it's good to see a native Quebecer here. Take care, Rain.

If was going to get any new amp sims, I'd definitely want to check out the stuff Danny's been working with (unfortunately I can't think of the name off the top of my head - I'll do a quick search and see if I can find it).

By the way, Head Case (aka SHRED) has been "comimg soon" just about as long as IK's 64bit SampleTank
