Default Acoustic Guitars - Kontakt 5

Does it K5 come with a better selection of Acoustic Steel guitars than K4?

You know NI might be a better place to get an answer. What you think?

I think it's weird that no one here but a guitar player uses Kontakt 5. I used K4 at a friend's studio and remember it having only one weird acoustic strum guitar. I was only hoping to get a quick simple answer here without having to sign up on another forum. No worries

Thanks. Does K5 have a selection of playable acoustic steel guitar patches? I remember K4 only having an almost useless strum only acoustic guitar, a nylon, and about three very nice playable electric guitars. But no selection of acoustic steel guitar patches in K4.

You're right. K5 does not have a playable steel-string guitar instrument, just a 'strum-only' instrument.

After digging a little deeper it seems that NI leaves the guitar innovation to 3rd party companies. Their Komplete 8 Ultimate bundle is over a grand and only comes with a useless strum only Acoustic guitar. I don't get that at all.

Thanks. This looks very nice but I was hoping that a nice selection of acoustic guitars would come with Kontakt or Komplete 8.
