amplitube 3 is free and it uses a host of presets available in BIAB and RB from the days when it was bundled with BIAB

Yup. Amplitube 5 CS is the current free version. v5 was a nice sonic upgrade to v4.

There's also the other big one...Guitar Rig 6 Player.

What’s nice about the IK players such as Amplitude, Syntronic and SampleTank is that they’re free. Period. The differences between the CS (free) and various paid versions is the number of libraries or effects that are included. This is not well understood.

Example: When SampleTank 3 in my copy of TotalStudio 2 was giving me grief in Mojave, I was not happy since I’d only owned it a couple of months. So, looking at upgrade pricing (and not liking what I saw), I downloaded SampleTank 4 CS for evaluation. All my ST3 libraries now worked in 4. Instant upgrade. Woo hoo! I later bought an ST4 package to get some additional instruments but only because I wanted them. The Mojave (later Catalina) functionality upgrade was free. ST4 is far more powerful and not nearly as intuitive as ST3—I found the intro videos to be a big help.

Previously, I figured it was like the NI model where the free and paid versions of Kontakt were different.

The UVI model is the same. The Player is free but you license the libraries.

+++ HERE +++ is another good one. Revalver was created by Peavey and now belongs to AMR or Audio Media Research.

ReValver 4 Modules included for Free include: ValveKing® & Custom Lite Amp Modules - RIR 2 Lite Cabinet Modeling Module (3 x cabs, 3 x mics, multiple mic positions) - Lite Green & Tremolo Stomp Boxes - C-verb Lite Effects Module - Audio Stream splitter - ACT Content (1 x Acoustic Bundle, 2 x Electric Pickup Bundles, 4 x Output presets).

ReValver 4 will need to be locked to a USB device to activate the license. This can be, amongst others, anything from a memory stick, iLok2 (or other dongle), audio interface or USB hard drive.

Another really good one for free...Crunk by Nembrini (he's the DSP dev behind some of brainworx' best amp and cab sims).

I always liked Revalver myself. Current favourite freebie is the ML Sound Labs "Roots" plugin, which is based on an EVH 5134 (5150 with EL34's).

No clean tone, but great distortion for lead and heavy rhythm.
