The 8 Best FREE Guitar VST Plugins Every Producer NEEDS in 2021!

hello and welcome to our guide to the best free guitar vst plugins in 2021 from organic natural acoustic guitars to electric jazz and rock guitars as well so without further ado the first guitar plugin on this list is ample guitar m light 2. now some of you will have definitely come across this one before as it's a very popular well-known virtual instrument the sound quality of this plugin is absolutely stunning and it gives this rich warm tone full of detail and clarity there is also a noticeable amount of variation and expression in each note that's played and these sonic imperfections create this effortless realistic playing experience the plug-in engine is also packed with additional features such as capo logic doubling legato sliding options a string tuner effects pedals and much more so let's take a listen to a midi sequence i've put together for this video [Music] as you can hear you get a really natural authentic sound so if you are looking for a free acoustic guitar plugin this one is an absolute no-brainer and on the topic of ample guitars they also have a free bass guitar plugin as well called ample bass p light 2 which has this really deep realistic tone so i'll leave a link to that plugin down below as well next up is classic guitar light this is a free multi-sampled classical guitar plugin with a bright organic character and a really simple strip back interface i will say that this guitar vst plugin doesn't quite have the same level of realism as the ample guitar plugin but it has a really interesting spanish vibe to it and it can also be used to create some really unique spacey classical guitar sound effects as well so let's have a quick listen [Music] the interface controls include modulation rate and depth a low pass and high pass filter and adsr controls as well so yeah a lot of potential here to create some really cool original sounds remember if you are enjoying this video please give it a thumbs up and subscribe to support the channel also be sure to comment down below your favorite guitar plugins that we didn't cover in this video the third free guitar plugin we're going to take a look at is spitfire labs collection of sampled guitars we've talked about spitfire labs many times in the past and they offer an insane range of free vst instruments including guitars pianos strings and other experimental sounds their free guitars include moon guitar mandolin guitar harmonics and a personal favorite peel guitar all of which are a hundred percent free as with all labs plugins the sound quality of the instruments is unreal for example the peel guitar gives a smooth vibrant tone right out of the box so let's see what it sounds like so yeah pretty amazing for a free plug-in so i definitely recommend checking this one out next up is haunted guitar light this spooky guitar vst plugin was created using a multi-sampled fender stratocaster and using this plug-in you can create some dark grungy atmospheric electric guitar sounds it comes with a range of on-board controls such as lfo modulation adsr filter types and reverb you can even add some noise to the guitar sound as well it also comes with an impressive range of presets including ancient void and also life drain which works really well for hip-hop beats overall this is a fantastic choice if you're looking for darker moodier electric guitar tones at number five is native instruments band so native instruments have an absolutely enormous free bundle called contact start which includes a huge range of free contact effects and instruments within this free bundle you get an instrument collection called band which allows you to sample 13 rock and pop instruments including electric guitars and basses for example let's have a listen to this jazz guitar [Music] there's also a really nice rock guitar and a few sampled bass guitars in there as well the band interface also has some really cool features in this options tab including various velocity parameters pitch bend transpose options and some randomizing controls as well speaking of contact i do want to quickly mention two other free guitar contact instruments firstly is the free version of shreddage 3. this is a heavy distorted electric guitar contact library that comes with a fantastic range of onboard controls and it really lets you personalize the guitar tone another free guitar contact instrument is ronroco this is again a huge library of ronroco loops and one shots now a ronroco is a kind of stringed instrument and it's definitely closer to a mandolin or a ukulele than an actual guitar but it sounds pretty amazing if you're looking for something a little bit different finally the last free guitar plugin in this video is dsk's dynamic guitars now don't be fooled by the somewhat amateur looking appearance this plugin can produce some really organic natural acoustic guitar sounds it has three sampled guitar types acoustic nylon and steel the interface includes adsr controls a voice mode selector a reverb parameter and a few of the controls as well so let's see what it sounds like in action [Music] and there we have it so that's our top picks for the best guitar vst plugins in 2020 hopefully you got some value out of this video and if you do want more content like this make sure you like the video and subscribe to the channel also comment any free
