To help you find the guitar sounds that are right for your next hit, we compiled a list of the best free guitar VST plugins that you can download and start using in your productions today. Perhaps you’re working on an electrofunk number and need the bright tone of a Stratocaster to cut through the mix. Maybe you want the warm, dry sound of a classical guitar for your lo-fi bedroom pop track.

Remember: Different guitar plugins are suited to different musical needs. By contrast, virtual software instruments use libraries of sampled guitar notes, playable with your MIDI keyboard within any DAW. You can find isolated guitar loops out there on the internet, but it can be difficult to make a random clip fit into your pre-existing song. But what if you don’t know how to play guitar, and you don’t have any guitar players around to record? The most cost-effective solution is to use a free guitar VST, or virtual instrument. Whether you’re talking electric or acoustic, the guitar renaissance has come to all genres of music. Published on S3 Stratus Free: 'Aquatic Ambiance' by David Wise (arr.Guitars are back, baby.
