Details

The instrument features a semi-hollow pine body with a masonite top and Brazilian rosewood fretboard, recorded in collaboration with Rosewood Recording Company. The sampling process involved the expertise of Rich Dixon, an accomplished session guitarist, ensuring a high level of authenticity. Articulations include sustains, mutes, natural harmonics, and various special effects like chugs and string slaps, all with three dynamics and four round-robins for nuanced performance.

A robust guitar effects engine is included, featuring modeled guitar pedals and selectable cab sizes with multiple mic placements. This allows for a comprehensive suite of effects without needing external processors. The library also supports multitracking up to quadruple tracking and offers adjustable pick position and various vibrato styles, enhancing playability and expression. The built-in strum pattern editor further aids in achieving realistic guitar strumming.
