The Elya Efimov acoustic guitars are in the same league. The Orange Tree Samples steel-string acoustic is also up there.

Interesting - I honestly never realized there were so many realistic sounding Libraries out there - I remember seeing an old one years ago (Steinberg I think) and was very unimpressed, so ignored these newer one oblivious to the fact that they were getting better and better. 
Shall have to start to behave myself, turn up on time (preferably sober and  without a hangover) and do takes in one go, no tantrums because the guitar won't stay in tune, or I can see myself being slowly phased out!!!!
Damn technology......................

Thanks for the links Eddie.

Looks like I dodged an expensive bullit on the 1st link, since my rig is kept offline.

But I checked out the indiginus link and like some of his things there. I just picked up Kontakt 4.2.4 earlier this month. 

NI have a summer sale in June/July.

Komplete 9 was introduced late - April instead of September - so whether that has any bearing on the timing of their next (summer)sale we shall have to wait and see.

I'd still expect a sale - who would buy at full price?

For those interested, here's a new song that shows off the Amplesound Taylor VST:

Sounds like someone there knows what they're doing ...
 
Cheers,

My favorite among those would be the OTS offering, which strikes a reasonable balance between price and features. Plus I just like the developer.

Agree!  I have a number of virtual guitars and Gregg, with OTS is fantastic, approachable, personally answers emails, is constantly innovating, based locally and samples are exquisite...
He also does great sales from time to time... a practicing/playing musician with brains enough to have created a great set of guitars/basses...http://www.orangetreesamples.com/
 
I'm probably going to pick up the GD-6 to complement Orange Tree's evolution series... I like many of the pickings/strumming options and plant to get back into virtual guitars for upcoming climate/resiliance/transition music... my 64 year old fingers can't begin to do what these lovely's can do these days and they sound fantastic...
 
BTW, the "indiginous" offerings are quite amazing for a super budget... they are another really cool company worthy of support...

sounds nice, cc...
 
btw, just picked up the GD-6 (bummed I missed the illya sale!!!!) and it's very nice... no manual I can see but the vids help and very nice finger picken' options with which I whipped out a song idea in 15 minutes, including vocals (yes, it does vocals too!)... very nice sound and transitions; like the multiple strums/pickings and large raft one can assign and modulate...
 
All of this after my initial wtf how do I use this friggin' thing moment...

we are sooooo lucky, aren't we?  It's truly a testament to the power of today's toys... Actually, you can do oooodles using free stuff these days.... but my personal journey has left a lot sitting on the hard drive as I search for "me" tools (inspiring, easy, intuitive, outrageous, spontaneous, and delicious...the vst's I mean....) I've dabbled in lots of daws and really only the most recent X3 has clicked to the point where I can create something I really feel "does it" in a reasonable time. I'm basically a songwriter and now I can weave the fabric around the message in ways I never dreamed!
 
...I just bit on DM-307... my 13 year old daughter listened to some of the demos and just freaked! "Dad, you gotta get that!!!" and I looked into my phone/bank and it said well, if you must...I thought it was the first HoC product I'd skip but when their stuff is so rich...oh...and a real sale... and oh...K I told Ellie...and did it
 
I have to admit, after spending an evening with DM and the GD-6 I had a song flushed out on the Florida floods that wouldn't have materialized if I hadn't bit on both... I diddled with RMX, AD, and a few others but within 15 minutes the DM did the deed and sounded way better (HoC is amazing) and I just deleted the others...
 
so... I'm left wonderin... what's that $49 daw?  know some kids that might wanna muk a bit!

Look at some of the effects in OTS Evolution Guitar

Is this from the Acoustic or Electric version?

Thank Larry......I was just imagining how my OT Acoustic will sound with a funky WAH in it.
