Default Pure Reaper Guitar Sounds ?

Been playing around with the vst's to try and create a guitar tone purely within Reaper, and find that it's quite poor, especially with overdrive & distortion tones. As a general interest question (not a complaint, nor really a future requirement for me) do any guitarists depend solely on the bundled plug-ins, or even after-market vst's to get a great sound?

Can anyone direct me to any free vst's for guitar - not pirate bay 'free', but legitimate freeware that I can play around with? I don't want to stuff about with cracks, keygens, etc.

I tried using Cubase a couple of years ago (a legit copy bundled with some hardware I bought) and found the same dissatisfaction.

As I say though, not a requirement for recording final material but it would be nice to get some late night cranking guitar tones through Reaper so when I'm sketching out an idea I don't wake the neighbors or the sleeping wife
