I agree with Glyn above on OT... That being said,...
 
Comments above, about AAS Strum are now INVALID... the new GS-2 is amazing.  I've got virtually all the guitarz mentioned here and OT/GS-2 stands head to head with almost all... 
 
Don't know how they've done the physical modeling so well... you get a slew of electric, steel string AND Nylon string guitars... they are very very good...Personally I tend to gravitate to OT's as I love Greg's amp sims and I'm use to their amazing playability but, the GS-2 set is an unbelievable deal...especially now with the holiday $49 upgrade sale/$99 first time buyer sale.

 Conclusions
There’s plenty more to tweak here, but first and foremost the instruments sound very, very good. Nylon-string guitars are warm, rich, and expressive. Steel-String guitars are detailed and convincing. The performance-oriented layout of the Play page grants access to the most important tweaks you would need for live performance. There’s panoply of impressive presets, but if you don’t find what you need, the Edit page is a click away. Is Strum GS-2 perfect? As I noted earlier, a user-definable hammer-on, pull-off range would be valuable, and a 12-string model would be great. As a guitarist, I’d really appreciate a full, multitimbral guitar in order to have individual MIDI input to each string. All that aside, AAS Strum GS-2 is the most faithful reproduction of any acoustic guitar you can put on your computer desktop. Even without having tested its upcoming electric guitar models, we can attest that its performance features and the sound quality of its physical modeling far outstrip any sample-based guitar plug-in.
