[QUOTE="KillTone, post: 112349, member: 1340"] I think there are 2 or 3 things about modded modules that make them "great". 1) cloning the tone of a desired amp (specific model or overall characteristic of a brand) 2) versatility. A module like the MashAll (which I have never tried but read a lot about) covers a wide variety of Marshall tones. I have a custom module that Trace at Voodoo did for me that covers tons of Marshall tone from a Plexi to JMP to JCM800 - with gain and voicing options that take it from mild gain to over the top high gain with a few flips of some switches. This is great for a live rig because I can totally change the character of that module in 5 seconds so its like having 2 modules in one space. So...this one covers cloning and versatility in one module. Also, many of the stock modules simply dont sound very good so even a basic mod can take a module from unusable to exceptional. I have only owned one Egnater module (an EG3) and no offense Bruce but it was pretty dead sounding compared to my modified modules. I had Voodoo do their Jose UG mod to it. ...but ultimately, tone is subjective. There are many people on the forum who have stock modules and see absolutely no reason to get them modded. [/QUOTE]
