The new amp models are: Fullerton Nrm, Fullerton Brt and Fullerton Jump, based respectively on a 1958 Fender Tweed Deluxe in normal, bright and jumped modes; Grammatico Nrm, Brt and Jump, based respectively on a 2016 Grammatico LaGrange in normal, bright and jumped modes; Revv Gen Red, based on the red channel of a Revv Generator 120; and Ampeg SVT-4 PRO, which recreates the amp of the same name.
