Audio Deluxe is offering the Amplitube Fender at a pretty good price, so I ordered it on Sunday and was able to download it
this morning.
 
After a few hours of trying it out, I am really pleased with the sounds for the various models. 
 
I've attached an mp3 of a short clip that demo's the following amps:  https://www.dropbox.com/s/10t57w4285ir38l/Amplitude%20Test.mp3?dl=0
 
64 Vibroverb Custom
57 Deluxe
Pro Junior
68 Deluxe Reverb
Super-sonic
Vibro-King
59 Bassman
champion 600
Metalhead** - watch out - this one is much louder.....

Thanks
lol, I love your little ditty, very infectious, still smiling :)
I was thinking of grabbing the Amplitube All-In bundle when I get home from work today, it contains AT3, Fender, Slash, Hendrix, Orange and Ampeg, been umming and arring for a while now, tried out some stuff on my second PC, sounds ok. Like the sound of the fender stuff you demo'd, what guitar were you playing with if I may ask ?
 
I have TH2 Full, S-Gear (Skuffham), Revalver 3, 3.5 and 4, Guitar Rig 3 and 5, and all the Studio Devil stuff, if you have any of these could you give me your opinion vs Amplitube ?
 
TH2 is my go to, and I would put the stuff I have in the following order
TH2
S-Gear (Amazing sound and feel, just not the bells and whistles of TH2, but it may slip into 1st)
Studio Devil
Revalver
Guitar Rig  (I would put Guitar Rig another 5 or 10 places down the list, but I don't have anything else to fill the spaces :) I try it every now and then, but just go back to the others, it really is awful IMO)

I bought Fender a while ago. It's worth adding the Princeton because it's a beautiful amp.

Thanks!  It's a Fender MIM Telecaster.  I'm just using the bridge pickup.
 
Hey Sharke - thanks for the hint on the Princeton.  I'm going to check it out.
Wait - there are two different models !  Which one did you go for?

That was really good!!  You got some really nice sounds out of that thing.
 
I love all the IK amp mods.
 
But now I can't get that tune out of my head . . . .

Agreed on all of the above. The Fender collection is excellent sounding, and the Princeton is a great add.

Just as you start getting pleased with that, check out the Orange collection that has some superb tones.

Example (not from IK) of someone using Amplitube Orange:

Fender package is the best out there of this type. Gives a good representation for those of us who can't afford a dozen amps.

Ha!  That's the problem - there is always just one more cool thing that I didn't even know I had to have. 
 
The Orange collection sounds fantastic......thanks.... I guess.

I seldom hear of any guitar player who wasn't happy with Amplitube Fender. I have it and I don't think there is another emulation that comes as close as this one to these types of sounds. Don't get me wrong, Many others are similar and offer nice sounds...but those nice clean amp sounds played on a fender...tough to compare any other to IMO.
