“If you talk about rare unicorns, that's the amp. To have something that John Mayer himself couldn't distinguish from the real thing, that’s something we would love to do”: The Neural DSP team reveal the vintage amp they dream of one day modeling

Through its innovative modeling technology, Neural DSP has managed to assemble a huge archive of amp sims, which are widely considered to be some of the most authentic-sounding digital amp repros currently available.

Recently, the firm unveiled one of the driving forces behind its market-conquering modeling mission: TINA – a physical, state-of-the-art robot that can apparently model any guitar amp with unprecedented accuracy.
