Instruments:

Guitars:

• Acoustic guitars: inexpensive to craft but deal less damage than electric guitars and are less durable
• Electric guitars: more expesive and REQUIRE an amp or portable amp for power, but deal more damage and have more durability compared to an acoustic guitar.
  • There are two types of electric guitars: ST (Clean sound) and LP (Overdriven sound)
  • LP guitars convert every chord to power chords

Electric Basses:

• Electric Basses deal the same amount of damage as electric guitars --> convert every chord to a single bass note

Freeplay Menu:

The freeplay menu allows players to play individual notes on each instrument type. Notes can be played with the keyboard or the mouse. Electric instruments require an amp connection or a portable amp in your inventory

Guitar/Bass Modes:

Instruments have two main modes, which are attack mode and chords mode

• Attack mode: allows the player to shoot music-note projectiles based on the notes available in the player note-counter
• Chords mode: allows the player to strum up to 5 custom chords selected from the chord selection menu

Enchantments (Guide Books):

Guitar/Bass enchantments can be obtained through the Luthier villager, which can obtain this role by being next to a Luthier Workbench. The Luthier has a chance to offer six different guidebooks, which can be combined with a guitar in a Luthier Workbench to enchant the instrument.
