Fender Tone Master Pro: Episode IV - A New Hope

null test (whatever tf thst is)

It means you don't need to get a shot.



...right?

How many Tone Master Pro users do we have here? I have one, and I do like it. The sparse amp selection (and honestly bizarre amount of it occupied by amps nobody would have asked for) means it's definitely second or third fiddle for me. But I do see potential there if they would pick an identity and accelerate a bit.

Yeah, they're doing the whole "sanguine, pretend that we're not massively behind" thing.

I think their identity is “We’re the modeler for people coming from tube amps who don’t have the time to do comparison shopping, so they pick the brand name they’ve heard of”.

I’m serious. I don’t think many people on this forum appreciate how big a job it is for a newbie to get up to speed on modelers enough to do comparison shopping.

You make a solid point. It's the easy "starter" one, both in terms of name rec and in terms of pretty pictures.

I think it's a good piece of gear, to be clear. I just think they kinda mostly "us, too" things, while playing from far behind on everything but the beginner-friendly interface when going for the most straightforward uses.
