Emulating a guitar

I'm almost fully recharged by now so i'm starting to pick up on new ideas.

Today i sat down with Zebra VST and created some additive waveforms with a typical digital flavour with pluck instruments in mind. I ended up with a project patch called E-Deck which is supposed to have the same feel as an acoustic guitar and with some luck also electric guitar.

As it is now there are 3 parameters which can change the overall sound slightly. It can go from very metalic to very soft.

5 examples of different body parameters:

and just for fun, Deer Hunter midi theme exposed to the patch:

Its far from finished because i can go in many directions and i need to try all of them out. In this demo i'm using SYNC as a vital ingredient. The patch itself consist of 1 OSC and 1 VCF so i still got 3 OSC and 3 VCF free which means it could end up as a 12 string guitar or a combined guitar-string etc.. patch.
