Comments about IK Multimedia AmpliTube Fender - Software Amplifier and FX Suite:
I purchased as an add-on to Amplitube3. It can be run stand-alone but I prefer to add all the Fender equipment to what's already in place with A3 and be able to use the A3 GUI. The Fender amp sounds are classic and pretty inspiring, but, to be honest, I wouldn't want to only have the Fender package because all the stuff that comes with A3 is so excellent (I love the Marshall simulations).

Comments about IK Multimedia AmpliTube Fender - Software Amplifier and FX Suite:
AmpliTube software is absolutely amazing and the Fender version is the only option for certain genres like surf. The '63 reverb is the best spring reverb emulation out there--bar none. The ability to record the guitar direct and add the rich springy tubey tone later is essential to efficient home recording...no amp closets to build, no expensive mics to setup.
The included VST container software also offers near zero latency for live performance or just some fun times playing through some great vintage amps and effects.
