After getting bored with Guitar Rig 5 I decided to some A/B with other sims I have.  One them is TH2 as included with Platinum.
 
Clumsy, fugly UI aside, it sounds VERY VERY good.  I hadn't tried it before yesterday evening.  Wow.

Many here love it...

I find it marginally acceptable...but that's just me...

The upgrade to the full version was just on sale...

What do you think of GR5?
 
I also have recently used ReValver IIIdotV, which has some decent tones in it as well.
 
What are you using?

I agree, TH2 is awesome! Full version is worth the upgrade IMO. I use GR5 as well, but TH2 is my go to amp sim

I have just about all of them.

My go to has become S-Gear.  The sound out of that is awe-inspiring...
And I'm a rock guy.  The effects are staggeringly good.

Just installed and played with Amplitube 4...verdict still yet to be determined.
Initial impressions were good...but not WOW...

I also have Bias Amp and Bias FX, which are quite nice...
TH2 Producer has rarely been used after my initial "run" with it...
Recabinet 4 it nice but limited...
GR5 used to be my "go to" but has become dated and "eh"...

Like Jimmy Durante used to say...

Ahh cha cha cha...I've got a million of 'em...LOL

I really do like many of the sounds in TH2, but the interface bugs me so much (as does the preset/saving system) that I rarely use it.  After getting S Gear, I have very little need for anything else (unless I need specific guitar effects like a fuzzface or something, then TH2 or Guitar Rig gets fired up).

I've tried a bunch of them...... I've tried TH2 producer several times, but really don't like the setup, and haven't been able to get any sound I like out of it (probably my fault for not really spending enough time with it)
 
I've got GR 4.....never that inspired...although I liked it better with the Rammfire stuff
 
S-Gear....love it....it was inexpensive, and sounds good...and he's added a lot of stuff to it since it's original release...
 
Amplitube 3....that's MY goto....that's the one that I seem to mesh with the best  (although S-gear is a very close second...anyone who hasn't tried that one...I would say go for it)
 
Others have come and gone....many of which I can't even remember the names....so, I couldn't have been that enthralled.
 
I've been considering getting Amplitube 4...but...I always wonder with some of these things if you're paying mostly for a snazzy looking new GUI....  if it's REALLY better than A3, I'll get onboard....but...I'll wait and hear the opinions of those here...

I have no favorite. I have TH2, GR5, AmpliTube and the Waves sim, all of them have "won" for me at one time or another in a particular track. I love the Waves one for amping synths though.

You think TH2 Producer is good ? get the Full version, it's excellent, second only to BIAS FX in my view

If you're talking Waves GTR3...
 
I have it, and never considered running synths through it. Gonna have to try that, for sure!
