Welcome to ARCHTOP: Hollowbody Electric Guitar, the latest next-generation virtual guitar from Impact Soundworks, available now for Kontakt 5 Player! While our Shreddage series is all about thick, aggressive tones intended for hi-gain amping, Archtop excels at expressive and dynamic clean tones. We captured the sound of an exquisite Jim Hall model hollowbody guitar by Sadowsky, as performed by veteran session player & performer Josh Workman (read more about our development blog here!)
The library is available now for the SALE price of just $109 during our Summer Sale, down from the list price of $159!
