About us

We review every piece of guitar software being offered on the market today by today’s standards. We let you know what the newest and best stuff is while also finding out which older plugins are still competing.

Out with the old pickups, in with a Bill Lawrence USA L500XL and refurbished Gibson Classic 57! The L500XL is point of fact one of the most affordable top quality pickups out there right now at around $55USD on Reverb and if you think all it does is Dime tones, you'd be mistaken. The Iceman can now do a little bit of everything!! Remember, if your pickups are crap, you are not getting the most out of your amp sims. It's not expensive to upgrade! www.honestampsimreviews.com #honestampsimreviews #sitstrings #ibanez #ibanezguitars #ibaneziceman #billlawrencepickups #billlawrenceusa #dimebagpickups #metalguitars #gibsonclassic57 #doomguitar #metalguitarist #pickupsmatter #modifiedibanez #modifiedguitars @weshauch thanks for the inspiration!
The Fuchs Audio amp sims from @brainworxaudio are no longer stuck in UA exclusivity!!! Have you ever wanted plugins that could do high quality Dumble or Trainwreck style tones with almost no effort? Well these are for you!! I have had so much fun with both of these plugins so far and I look forward to a lot more! www.honestampsimreviews.com #honestampsimreviews #brainworx #fuchsaudio #fuchsamps #bluesguitar #countryguitar #bluesguitarist #countryguitarist #dumbleclone #trainwreckclone #telecaster #telecasterfloral #telecasterworship #telecasterjapan #peterflorancepickups #fenderguitar #fendertelecaster #classicrockguitar #zztoptone
SATURDAY SKATE PUNK!! Every single time I get to create skate punk in the comfort of my home with plugins based on gear I lived for as a teen I end up with a smile on my face a mile wide. This is a song I wrote and recorded as a 17 yr old on a Fostex 4-track with more Y adapters than anyone ever needed. It's fun to be able to bring this track to another level today. Thank you sincerely to all of the developers out there making great stuff! www.honestampsimreviews.com #honestampsimreviews #skatepunk #punkguitar #toontrack #punkrock #brainworx #pluginalliance #ampeg #ampegsvt #superiordrummer3 #toontracksd3 #Audiority #vs8100 #izotope #mathewlane #Marshallamps #valvestate #cockosreaper #homerecording #Nembriniaudio #mrh810 @toontrack @brainworxaudio @adam_audio @audioritysound @valhallir @nembriniaudio
While I am a proud Ormsby artist my love for @Ibanez guitars stretches back 25 years to when I got my first RG. I love playing and modding them almost equally and I'll likely be buried with my @paulgilbert_official PGM 301. Thank you to Ibanez for providing quality and cost effective instruments for so many years.

You'll be very impressed, trust us!! NEW from Neural DSP is the Fortin Cali Suite! This thing is capable of ungodly chugs but it's also so good at so many other things. This is definitely not just another high gain amp folks. Stay tuned you our IG, YT or Join the HASR User Group on Facebook for tons of Cali content today and this weekend!! Tons to come! www.honestampsimreviews.com #neuraldsplugin #neuraldsp #fortincali #Fortincalisuite #fortinamps #honestampsimreviews #el34 #greattone #guitarlife #homestudio #homerecordingstudio #rockamp #metalguitarist #djentguitarist #rockguitarist #ampsimulation #ampsim #whiteamp #instagramguitar #ampplugin
Try and do something different once in a while, it will only help you grow. In this case I was aiming for some sort of @sigurros type thing. The @audioritysound Xenoverb plugin is truly remarkable in every way. For all guitars I used the @fuseaudiolabs F59 amp sim with the @valhallir TBAC IR pack. On bass I have the @brainworxaudio BN15. Drums are @toontrack SD3 The power of mixing together not only music but developers causes me nothing but joy. There are just so many developers doing amazing things right now, it's a great time for musicians recording at home. www.honestampsimreviews.com #honestampsimreviews #Brainworx #ampeg #audiority #reverbvst #Valhallir #impulseresponses #voxamps #homerecording #sigurros #atmosphericrock #fuseaudiolabs #fenderbassman #homestudio #telecaster #fendertelecaster #toontrack #superiordrummer3 #sitstrings @sitstrings
