Electric Guitar help / Synthesizer basics help

Hi umm, I'm fairly new to Audiotool and to music in general. I'm trying to make some rock music, but I can't seem to find any presets for an electric guitar that actually sound like one. (I'm talking about the electric arc sounding guitar, the kind that rumbles the audience's seats and would be perfectly placed in an AC/DC song).

Though, I'd also like some tips on how to set up a preset like that myself, and which devices would suit it best.

I don't know any of the actual music technology terms yet (that class is actually coming up for the fall semester), so I kinda also need some explanation as to what the dials and settings actually do.

Synthesizers in AT never do very well with replicating actual instrument sounds, i'm afraid

you're better off playing it yourself, or finding a safe loop to use

I'll try that preset. Maybe the synthesizers don't work out on their own, but perhaps they could work with a combination of devices working together.
