I’ve been working on this for months — longer and harder than anything I’ve done before, except the Pink Floyd pack. Up to now, the presets I made reflected the tones that I liked — they were never meant to be exact copies of existing sounds, just sounds that worked for me, both for playing alone and for my rock and metal cover bands. I’ve always had technical knowledge in sound engineering and guitar gear — how to use this or that amp model, which guitar or amp a famous guitarist uses — but I was also always very intuitive when making presets, often thinking outside the box. First and foremost, it needed to work for me. And very importantly, it needed to inspire you to play for hours. I think that was always one of my biggest strengths: providing sounds that make you want to pick up the guitar and not put it down.With Guitar Heroes Vol. 1, I kept that approach but pushed the technical side further than I ever have before. Every preset still starts like before, with my mix of technical knowledge, knowledge of what was used in the original recording + out of the box thinking. But this time, every decision was also verified against the original studio recordings using advanced spectral analysis — comparing frequency response, gain structure,pick dynamics, reverb character, delay timing, all of it.

Let’s be honest — achieving a perfect copy of a recorded guitar sound is impossible. The player, the guitar, the studio chain, the room, the moment, the hands — too many variables. But getting as close as humanly possible while keeping the sound musical and inspiring? That was the target, and I genuinely think I hit it here.

EVERY PACK INCLUDES:

Dedicated Clone(s) per preset — built from two-pass advanced Tonematch + deep EQ calibration
Detailed Excel reference file: full preset list, snapshots per preset etc.

Packs details

Eddie VH

21 presets built around the tone that changed rock guitar forever, from the David Lee Roth years — first album to 1984.

• 11 song-specific presets: Eruption, You Really Got Me, Ain’t Talkin’ About Love, Dance the Night Away, Loss of Control, Mean Streets, Unchained, Hang ‘Em High, Little Guitars, Panama, Jump

• 10 VH Raw presets — flexible, studio-ready tones in the EVH character for your own playing

The Satch Tones

From the raw energy of Not of This Earth (1986) to the smooth sophistication of Is There Love inSpace? (2004), Satriani’s tone evolved album by album — and this pack tracks some of my favorite songs of that journey. 18 presets spanning six albums, each calibrated against the original studio recordings. Clean intros, singing leads, wah tones, and the Satch Boogie crunch are all here. One preset, Super Funky Badass, is also ideal to play the more modern Satch tones, specially his live ones.

The Vai Universe

Steve Vai’s tone is one of the most distinctive and elusive sounds in guitar. Liquid, expressive, otherworldly — somehow both pristine and alive. 12 presets built to capture it: For the Love of God, Erotic Nightmares, Juice, Die to Live, Tender Surrender, Here and Now, Touching Tongues, The Crying Machine, Fire Garden Suite, Jibboom, Windows to the Soul, Zeus in Chains. Every sound calibrated against the studio recordings, with the same advanced methodology used across the entire Guitar Heroes series.

Majestic Dreams

28 presets spanning most of the Dream Theater catalogue — from the crystalline clean tones of Images & Words to the crushing modern distortion of Distance Over Time. John Petrucci’s tone is technically demanding to reproduce: the balance between aggression and articulation, the precise harmonic density of his Mesa sounds. Every preset in this pack was built from advanced tonematch sessions and verified against the original studio recordings. This is the most comprehensive Petrucci tone resource available for the Fender Tone Master Pro. Presets included: Pull Me Under, Under a Glass Moon, Metropolis Pt.1, Innocence Faded, Scarred, Lie, A Change of Seasons, Peruvian Skies, Overture 1928, Beyond this life, The Spirit Carries On, The Glass Prison, The Test that Stumped The All, As I Am, Stream of Consciousness, The Root of All Evil, In the Presence of Enemies, Constant Motion, A Nightmare to Remember, The Best of Times, Lost Not Forgotten, Breaking All Illusions, On the Back of Angels, The Enemy Inside, Untethered Angel, and a dual clean + acoustic simulation sound, as used by John Petrucci on many songs.
