I use Sunburst through Kontakt 8. I love the pre-defined right-hand variations (especially the ability to customize voicings or simply allowing it to play single notes (based on the associated MIDI track).

The quality of the samples is fabulous! And the included effects/amps Tab offers even more flexibility.

My ONLY critique is that it takes a bit of time to load various presets.

Maybe not you still have to understand music theory, scales and chords. But for songwriting and quick demos it is very helpful. Sound quality is amazing and often a bit sterile so, so you probably wont fool a lot of people. Got this in the Komplete ultimate bundle which is a bargain as an addon to the S61 KB.

I got the Native Instruments Picked Acoustic and Electric Sunburst instruments to quickly add guitar tracks to songs. Let me preface this by saying I am a novice at this, so I'm sure I'm making errors due to my steep learning curve, but there are a couple things that have been difficult in these tools. The most frustrating thing is getting the patterns to end. I'm using them in Studio One: I create a score with the chords I want, add a pattern in the guitar track that points to the MIDI key that activates each pattern I mapped in the instrument, and the pattern activates when I play the track in Studio One. The problem is getting them to stop. There are three MIDI notes that are supposed to activate an "end" in the instrument, but the pattern continues after that end has played, so it really isn't an end, it's a fill. That single problem makes these tools almost unusable for me, because I haven't found a way to stop, so I'm really scratching my head. I'm also struggling to determine how I can set volume changes throughout the track. I found a way to do this with the Electric, using pick, mic, and bridge volume, but the Acoustic has eluded me for volume settings. I also wish there were more triplet patterns.
