The Damage Guitars Black Friday deal puts this Heavyocity Kontakt instrument at $119, 52% off, with the offer ending Dec 18, 2026.
Damage Guitars is a virtual instrument built around heavy guitar tones, riffs and clean guitars. It runs inside Kontakt 6 or the free Kontakt 6 Player.
Heavyocity says the library draws on the background of co-founder Neil Goldberg, a former touring metal guitarist.
The sources come from his collection of electric guitars, including custom shop Gibson, PRS, Fender, Jackson and Ernie Ball models.
The guitars were run through an assortment of pedals into five tube amplifiers. After recording, Heavyocity pushed them through its own signal chain.
Heavyocity also recorded bass tracks to match each guitar riff, so the low end lines up with the rhythm parts. Here is the content list:
The riffs come in three keys: D, A and F#. A browser loads sources from three banks, and there are two engines in total.
A macro knob controls several parameters at once. The playable side includes 4 scoring-style guitars, 4 ppp guitars, 4 tempo-synced reverse ambiences and 2 ambient distorted pads.
The library is a download only, and it takes 9.57 GB on disk with NI lossless compression. It needs the free Kontakt 6.7.1 Player or later, and it is NKS-ready with Komplete Kontrol integration.
Plugin formats are Standalone, VST, AU and AAX.
