You go, son. If I was in the biz , I’d totally pick up this one.

That was fun. Nice playing - and *killer* tone sir.

Can you share from your gtr to my ears - how'd you go about getting that tone?

My new/used Ibanez JS-2410, going into a Ceriatone AH-50.

Eventide H949 mixed at 7%

So is the AH-50 fed to a spkr cab and mic'd? Or you're using a line out signal to an interface?

Eventide in the effects loop?

I built a reactive load that has the impedence curve of a Marshall 1960A cabinet, so the amp runs into the loadbox/line out into my audio interface (Focusrite Scarlett 2i2).

I only use the harmonizer on the lead guitar track.

I run in on a bus in ReaperDAW, mixed in at between 7% ~ 12%.

I now understand why that tone is so spectacular.

The reactive load "looks" like a 4x12 to the amp's output section. So, it's just dissipating energy that would normally be driving speakers. The power resistors dissipate this energy in the form of heat.

The reactive part of the circuit provides the amp with "flyback energy" which makes the output section of the amp react similar to how it would if driving a speaker cabinet.

Once you get the signal into the DAW, the chosen impulse responses have a lot more to do with the "tone". I'm using IR's I bought off the Celestion website - specifically the Celestion G12M-25 watt
