![]() Leveraging knowledge of classic and modern tube amps, we’ve taken queues from the biggest and best amp manufacturers while creating something truly unique - a mix-ready, studio quality high-gain amp head with tons of range no. This kind of simplicity can be a blessing or a curse, depending on the application and your tastes. Guilty Pleasure contains an all-new design for a high-gain amp head built by none other than Joey Sturgis himself. ![]() It just makes for an incredibly limited range of tones within each plugin. ![]() That’s not inherently bad, and is arguably much like working with a real tube amp in some ways. And while there is certainly sculpting that can be done within the plugin, the fundamental tone stays relatively the same. It may seem, upon first inspecting the parameters of each amp, that the tonal palette is pretty huge. The intentional limitations of the Toneforge line, while convenient and useful, can also be a bit crippling when you want to venture outside of the realm that is defined by each of the amps. ![]() Additional amp models or further plugin treatment may be necessary, especially in denser mixes. The amp and effects work together in a way that’s almost impossible to get a bad sound out of the plugin. Guitars are one of those elements where tones can (and often should) vary drastically-even within the same mix-so using the same treatment globally may be ineffective when dealing with many layers of guitar tracks. Toneforge Guilty Pleasure is a unique blend of pedals, amp & cabinets intended to create ripping high-gain guitar tones. While the simplicity of this range has its upsides, it also has its downsides.
