A top virtual concert guitar

NOW € 119, normal price € 149

A first class classical concert guitar built in 1991 by Paulinho Bernabe (Madrid) was used to produce this first class plugin made with samples in pristine 24 Bit quality called Authentic Guitar. Recorded with the best equipment suited for classical guitar this library gives the user all possible tools for a premium virtual classical guitar.

Authentic Guitar 2 is not the product when you are merely looking for a simple nylon string down-up stroke sound. It is the most elaborate, like-real sounding virtual guitar that you will find on the market. It is incomparable with all other products, just by at least one essential difference: is sounds like a first class concert guitar on a level that is just unimaginable. Only give your ears the chance to listen at the convincing demo's and conclude that there is no better classical guitar mock-up possible. And no...........we didn't hire a live guitarist for these demo's.

Musesamples wants to sell this product in a transparent and honest way. So you are able to listen at some tracks without added EQ or reverb. But also you can enjoy which results can be achieved with clever and often simple mastering.
