Derailed Ingrid (Trainwreck® Circuits Express)
A mythical beast, these amps are now fetching $50k+ on the market. Typical cork-sniffer language associated with this amp includes "blossom" and "overtones".
Here's an excellent video from Jason Sadites on how to make this amp sound great.

Oh Ingrid
Derailed Ingrid patch, showing the Trainwreck amp model of the Helix. The Dhyana Drive is included, but not enabled by default. I have been making good use of the "Double Take" modulation effect, it adds a lot of body to the sound through headphones. If you're playing into a PA or direct recording, you may want to turn off this effect.You can hear various degrees of distortion in the Soundcloud demo - I didn't change anything except the attack of my pick.In the Soundcloud demo I am playing a Les Paul standard with a Burstbucker in the bridge.

Try exploring different drive/master settings for a balance between asymmetric preamp distortion with more even order harmonics and symmetric power amp distortion with more odd order harmonics. Derailed Ingrid does this quite well.
