Well then... I just found the SRV "Little Wing" tone I've been searching for in TH2...

and it was easy as farting.
 
None of the presets were getting me close and anytime I tried to laboriously build my own preset it never quite got that jangly tone.
 
Well I was just trying to set up a simple config to practice along with some general blues/jazz MIDI backing tracks I'm creating. The starter preset (the one that loads when you open TH2) was a nice clean tone so I figured I try working with that a bit. I tossed the Tube9 overdrive pedal in front of the amp head and VIOLA! Closer than I've ever been. I set the toggle on my souped up Pacifica to include the single coils (in all but the pure humbucker bridge settings I'm getting variations on a nice SRV tone) and on the Tube9 pushed up the tone to almost full and turned up the overdrive a little and now my pots and toggle are responding like a Strat through whatever the heck Stevie was using for rig. Sounds better than even going through my amp (this is purely on line in through my Focusrite Scarlett 18i6).
 
Just for clarity I'm on the full version of TH2 (not sure if the Sonar edition starts on the same preset).
 
The amp head is the Overloud thingie with the SLR fader set all the way to the left channel which is set to the Darkface 65 (didn't tweaked any of those settings unless I did so yesterday when I was first playing around but I don't think I did).
 
I inserted the Tube9 Overdrive pedal in between the guitar and the head.
 
The cab and mic settings are the default TH2 setting and the reverb module is inserted (again I didn't touch those settings).
 
With at least one single coil thrown into the mix it jangles all nice and pretty but still sounds good on the bridge humbucker.
 
Just thought I'd share.
 
Cheers.

Thanks Beep!

In TH2 you might want to try the Bassman sim as well. It is a little thicker than the Darkface. I use the Marshall plexi myself. I prefer the original Hendrix version over Vaughn's. TH2 has become a regular for me. I am in the process now of setting up my POD HD500 as a midi controller for it. I have Amplitube and Guitar Rig but there is just something about TH2 that seems a little more responsive.

Thanks for the tip on the Bassman sim, Sidroe. I'll check that out. It's seems to be pretty easy to get pretty good thick rock/metal tones and super clean modern country tone with sims but man has the blues jangle really been alluding me until now.
 
And I'm on the full version. After hearing what the Producer version could do I jumped on it but could have very easily gotten a lot done with Producer. I had just upgraded to GR5 before X2 came out and although I'm sure I could still find a place for it on my stuff it just does not produce the same realism as TH2 does to my ears. THAT was a mighty fine add on to Sonar IMO. I plan on getting the MarkII Bass sim at some point too because of how impressed I was with TH2.
 
And you're about that Brunetti. It's great. I like it much more than the Randall stuff and I'm (usually) a metal guy. Couple on stompboxes and it sears.
 
Cheers.
