Lets be clear the videos exist for the purpose of making you buy stuff and for no other reason. They are product demonstrations not reviews and they admit they don't cover stuff they aren't going to be positive about, but off the top of my head:
the Mesa Cab Emulator (which they then handled very badly), the 5w Marshall Origin, Boss DS-1, the Suhr Riot, Fender Jaguars in general, bootcamp strat pickups.
They are usually a fairly gentle "It's not for me, but you might like it", but they do it from time to time.
With something like this they aren't really hurting themselves if they say they like valve amps, or the Neural as they make sales either way so I don't see why they would fake anything.
More generally I think Andertons are more interested in promoting the shop and the people on the videos so that they are top of mind when you shop for anything music related rather than selling the featured product. That's why they are more personality driven and not especially good product demonstration. It's personality led brand building.
Interestingly Elmo (who buys his own gear) thought the built-in Plexi model was not very good but profiled his actual amp and said that was excellent.
Has anyone captured a Peavey Bandit yet ?
The QC is missing features, no doubt. But for some reason, the missing features happen to align with the list of things I don't really care too much about.... everything I wanted is there pretty much - and really, what I wanted was something that captured my real world amps better than the Kemper does.
I can work around the limited delay and reverb options. Don't really care about modulations.
