This one is another step from the Greg Howe - Jump Start preset, I was tone matching to no avail and just started searching for something that really just fit for me and a nice fusiony tone. Switched to the 2x12 AC Blue cabinet and really liked what it did for this type of sound.

I also have an impulse that adds some feel to it. I want to say I captured the BBD Delay's raw charateristics, but now I can't actually remember if that's what I did, but this included preset expands the sound a bit and adds some feel. My reasoning was that the filtered sound of the BBD Delay on full mix was a LOT like the Eventide Pitchfactor. But then you had some major latency. Deconvolver ignored that and just colored it. Pretty sure that's what this is, too because it feels like it. But I named it "Eleven Rack Warmer" as it's only purpose would be to use with the cabinets on.

Anyway, it has a cool feel, that jazzy horn kinda sound with that amp and cabinet (you'll hear a lot more in the clip when I switch to the bridge pickup), brought out a bit more with the impulse, so here it is. I named it Jazz Clean on Overdrive because it reminded me a little of the Flextone II's Jazz Clean preset with some overdrive. But definitely more realistic and amp like thanks to Eleven Rack. Also used the resonation mod trick just to make everything nice and even so you can do a lot of fusion lead stuff, legato, hammer ons from nowhere, etc.

That tape delay sure adds some classic fusion style to solos. None of this was post processed.

Preset (regular 11R preset, no EPSi needed): https://db.tt/QHWk0GbR

EPSi ready preset (basically added FX Loop placed with mix settings for the IR): https://db.tt/izGvDew0

Sample (just some noodling around, sounds better when I switch to the bridge pickup, that's the reason I decided to post it becuase it's got a unique character to it for jazz/fusion guitar): https://db.tt/smmkIAEb

IR (Eleven Rack warmer (Use with 11R cabinets): https://db.tt/I5rbUEDe

Could probably go from here and tweak to get some Dave Martone, Greg Howe, Frank Gambale, Shawn Lane presets by playing with the EQ. Let me know if you have any updates or presets in this genre of guitar.

Switch to the AC Hi Boost for a more Dave Martone sound. I'm actually prefering this now. Many of the classic amps work nicely, the JCM 800 with the preamp turned up has it's own kinda feel and tone.
