Some of the developers (myself included) are a bit nervous about using trademarked brand names. However this is a bit annoying when you can’t figure out what they’re trying to reference. Really we should just use our ears and use what sounds good to us, but on the other hand its nice to be able to speak in terms that most guitarists would know (like “marshal tone”).
The CAPS VTS amp and cab are IMO the most guilty of hard to figure out names. I made a “quiz” trying to figure out what they all were here: Guitar Tone Quiz Time
I got several responses and I think a lot of them are explained.
