Excellent!

Any of the emulators from Wampler or Catalinbread are great. Also Runoffgroove.

My favorite though is the Ethos TWE, as is, or modded for a little less gain. I also converted one from a 1 knob tone control to a 3 knob tone stack.

I have also built the baja 59 plexi, which is lower gain than most, but comes alive when pushed with an overdrive, fuzz or boost pedal. Based on that one build, my guess is all the Baja are probably decent. These are probably a good choice for use with the headphone amp.

BTW, the Wamplers are a bit tricky as you really need jfets that bias properly at the original drain resistor values.
