Are you trying to say that no one you know owns and plays a guitar?
You can get sample libraries I'm sure (google "guitar sample libraries") but it's not gonna sound natural.
Just record an actual guitar dude, so much easier and so much better.

it wouldnt be the easiest way because i would have too a. buy a guitar. b learn how too play it. and c. buy a microphone.
theres loads offffff producers that have put a lil reggae skank and programmed it in themselves.. i dont mind if it doesnt sound naturel because some reggae piano's dnt sound naturel. ur telling me the days when they made slengteng riddim everything was completely real? come on there must be some way??? i want too put complex chord structures down with my keyboard.. not just a sample of a standerd c minor

just skank it on some keys. high cut to around 8k & low cut to around 250Hz,
add some phase,delay, a wah plugin.
the hardest part of what ya wana do is get the cachinkachink sound,

sleng teng dont use guitar....
so your argument not valid.
if you want a keyboard sound,
get your casio out.
for real:
you can get a synth to sound like a guitar (running it through some guitar fx helps, too)
or just sample it.
with a bit of midi programming (mute, up and downstroke) and some half decent samples you should get some nice chops, too.

Yeah man use a sample. Loopmasters have done entire 500 MB sample packs purely on guitar sounds.
They put the note in each file name so you can just pitch it up/down accordingly.

I thought down stroke was the old style and up stroke was the new style.
