    As far as I've found, this one is the best so far. It's really realistic guitar sound ever I found on Youtube.
    Have you ever found a better one? What is the best one you found/made so far?

    Ample Sound also sounds best to me.

    Amplesound are by far the best ones. When you play them completely clean (no effects etc.) and send them through guitarrig, amplitube etc. they come very close to the original provided you don't play them piano-like. Check the riffer function to hear what they can sound at their best.

    Not the absolute best or realistic, but KeytarJeff is really fun to watch. He uses MusicLabs VSTis on his keytar.

    Sounds pretty realistic to me.
    I could only tell during palm muting parts that it's fake because it has this weird choppy low end.
    Didn't expect that it would sound this good

    I felt the same. MusicLab is pretty good, but it hasn't been updated on sis site, and it crashes a lot recently. Thus, I stopped using it.

    Ye, palm muting of Ample Sound is kinda tricky part. I've been trying to make it realistic, but, it's not easy.

    Thanks, but I tested everything I could. Especially, Ample Sound, MusicLab and Shreddage.

    Do you have a MIDI example on hand? I'm pretty happy with Shreddage's palm mutes to be honest.

    Well, it's mostly the same as the one in the video. Shreddage is good, but it's too complicated.

    Not one mention of UJAM? You all must be real guitar players

    Thanks, BEAT16.
    Actually, I tried everything above except the Acoustic Samples ones. Their feature is really fascinating. I like the pattern maker and song builder. It's a bit different from Ample Sound. Not so many electric guitar vst developers provide it. The only drawback is it sounds a little bit fake. Plus, there is no Les Paul and PRS version.
    The sound quality is similar to the Sugar bytes one.
    I was pretty disappointed in the Applied Acoustics ones as it sounds really fake. It's not good against the reputation.
    Ujam and NI ones sound good, but they are limited because of the pattern based. Plus, their file size is really big.
