I don’t know. I think it is more generic Than Full IR but not enough to fit all. I think it is going to work on similar guitars with similar pickups. (My 2 cents)

It is the main idea behind the « dry » preset, however I add a IR bloc with an IR file made similarly to the « quackless » preset to remove the quack.

For me EQ balance the tone but does not really alter the « feel ». EQ are filters designed to have a super fast response.

My IR are here to « model » the propagation of sound throughout the top. I am not sure if it is really « right » but it is how I like to see it.
