Wish Demeter TGP-3

I recently discovered that one of my neighbors has a TGP-3, and after he kindly let me play through it for a few hours, I have developed a taste for this elusive preamp. Love to have it in the III!
Any chance your friend would send it to fractal to be modeled?
 
Wish I still had the TGP3 with DeLeo mod. I would have been totally cool with sending it in to Fractal for evaluation.

I’ll also add that when I owned it it was surprisingly different than I thought it would be. Dean’s tone always comes across as fairly modern especially on Core. But the TGP3 is definitely a saggier sound. Almost sounds like a Bassman on the verge of blowing up or a Fender Deluxe cranked to hell. When you hear some of the raw guitar tracks from that album that are on YouTube you can hear it better. The slick production kind of glosses over those rough edges.

When I bought it on eBay it had some issues so I sent it in to Demeter for service and to have it out to DeLeo specs. James Demeter was a wonderful person to deal with. Very nice and kind man.
