It totally depends on the guitar. Unless they have the correct image for your exact guitar, you're going to need to try out a bunch of them (likely dozens) to find one that sounds good. Most of them will sound very strange and not good at all. You may find a favorite among the ones that sound OK, but it won't necessarily be a good choice for other guitars, even the same make and model.
If you're not yet the owner of an Aura system, may I suggest that you look into the ToneDexter? It does something similar, but it can be trained to any instrument and microphone pairing you like. And it sounds amazing. |

The sound images in the sound image gallery are described by the guitar model and the type of mic(s) used to create the sound image. To take SpruceTop's advice, you'd most likely want to find a guitar that's the same model as your own guitar, or a similar model, and choose a sound image which was created using a ribbon mic (providing you can find one).
It also helps if you have a Fishman Matrix or Prefix pickup in your guitar. Most of the sound images were created using Matrix-equipped or Prefix-equipped guitars, and that does make a difference. This short vid provides a little insight into the sound image gallery: https://youtu.be/4ymSG2B0Bf0?list=RD4ymSG2B0Bf0 |

I use a Gibson J-29, which is a slope shoulder spruce topped dred with rosewood back and sides. I find that the image that works for me is a Gibson J-45 - with its mahogany back and sides. Weird, eh? You have to try a bunch and see.
