The Damage Guitars 2 Black Friday deal brings Heavyocity's Kontakt guitar library to $149, 50% off, until Dec 18, 2026.
It is a collection of melodic electric guitars for scoring: leads, chunky riffs, licks and bass lines, played by Neil Goldberg and sampled through real tube amps and pedals.
The maker pitches it as a way to get a session guitarist into your DAW, with edgy, heavy cues in mind.
Three styles are on offer: Metal, Damaged and Hard Rock. Each is recorded in three keys: A, D and F#.
The content breaks down like this:
In total that is over 3,470 samples from more than 1,720 individual sources, plus 150 custom presets.
The guitars are a Suhr Modern, an Andy Wood Signature Modern T, a Jackson PC1 and a Gibson ES-335.
The pedal chain includes the Strymon Riverside overdrive, Thorpy FX Electric Lightning, Procore Manticore drive, Whammy DT Octaver and Dimebag Wah.
Two amp sets shape the tone. The Hard Rock style uses a Marshall 1959 HW Plexi with a Victory Amps Dutchess 40W. The Metal and Damaged styles use a Friedman BE-100 Deluxe with a Victory Amps Super Kraken.
There are three instrument types: Damage Guitars Menus, Playable Guitars and the Designer.
The Menus instrument gives you one preset per key, with a browser for loading sources and matching guitar and bass riffs. The Playable instrument maps sustains, textures and chords across the keyboard.
The Designer Engine lets you layer playable sustains and banks across 3 channels. Each channel has FX controls for Envelope, Tone, Drive, Motion and Space.
The Advanced Mixer adds Drift, Scatter and recordable automation. Performance controls handle tempo-sync, start times and sequencing. The custom master FX section includes Punish, compression, reverb and delay.
A macro knob on every instrument controls several parameters at once. A settings page covers legato, glide, sustain and velocity.
Damage Guitars 2 runs in the Kontakt 7 engine and needs Kontakt 7.10.5 (Player) or later. It works standalone and as VST, AU and AAX, and it has NKS 2.0 integration.
It takes 7.95GB on disk with NI lossless compression and is a direct download only.
On Mac, the maker lists macOS 12, 13, 14 or 15. Apple Silicon runs via Rosetta 2, or natively in standalone or in hosts that support it.
On PC you need Windows 10 or 11 and an Intel Core i5 or equivalent CPU. The maker lists 4 GB of RAM as the minimum and recommends 6 GB for large Kontakt instruments.
