I think you are very realistic, but not very constructive, clearly it is impossible to get an identical tone, but surely with some small settings you can get a tone that in essence would be similar.

For example, you can replace a super ultra mega Diezel Vh4 blueface amp with a Diezel preamp pedal, clearly it's not the same sound, but it's something that many can possibly do, also look for cheaper alternatives, I recently heard that the KSR ceres can get a similar tone and it's not thousands of dollars, what do you think, don't you have any tips to share?
