Steve,
 
About the amp plugs.  Yes, they are "decent". Have no idea if they try to model something specific.
 
There is not a vast difference from California to Tweed, to British and a couple other overdrives in the suite including the new one, whatever it was. They all follow the same design as far as I can hear, but the model is good. Delivers a smooth overdrive with a growling breakup overlaid that almost emulates speakers flapping against tube distortion. Don't know if I'm playing thru a simulated Fender or a Vox, but the sound is cool regardless.
 
Eddie and Dmbaer gave good analysis.
 
Point made incidental about the licensing. Simple serial number and lifetime upgrades. Quite a few stomps that will never be your go to units, but maybe 10 or so that are front line. No ilock or online activation ****.
 
Noted also Larry tried the digital reverb with guarded response. Me too. The plate reverb is better.
 
No brainer at this price, and any support is fast and compassionate. Don't know how much support would be needed since just a couple knobs per box.

Perfect, thanks John.    FWIW, I'm not looking for any specific amp models, just amp models that behave nicely.   And it sounds like these will fall into that category.    Combined with everything else in and about this bundle, it sure does look like a deal of the brainless variety.

You can demo them all. In fact, you have to download and install all of them since they don't offer individual plugin downloads. Give 'em a try and see if there are enough plugins in the collection that you'd actually use to justify the purchase.
 
$49 for 45 plugins is sure a great bargain, but the ones I've tried (about half of them) were just mediocre. I mean that literally, that they're all OK, just nothing spectacular. The only one I have licensed is the transient shaper, which I got for free but never use.

Good point, Bit.   Downloading the demo version now.     (also downloaded the free Revalver 4 earlier).
