Guitar
Overview[edit | edit source]
The Guitar in Sons of the Forest is a melee weapon you can find in the Entertainment Bunker. While it's fun to swing around, it's more of a novelty item than a serious weapon, as it has low damage and no blocking capabilities. However, one cool feature is that you can play a random tune when using the block button.
Usage[edit | edit source]
The Guitar isn't the most powerful weapon in the game. It has slow attack speed and doesn't pack much of a punch, so it's not ideal for combat compared to other melee weapons. If you're looking for serious damage, you're better off using weapons like the Modern Axe. That said, the Guitar can be used for some fun moments, and if you're into collecting unique items, it's quirky addition to your inventory.
Tips & Tricks[edit | edit source]
- Use the Guitar to add some humor to combat by playing tunes while holding the block button.
- Be cautious when using it in combat as it leaves you vulnerable due to its slow speed and lack of defense.
- You can add the Solafite Plating to enhance both the visuals and damage output.

Worth it?[edit | edit source]
If you're just collecting items or want a weapon with a bit of personality, the Guitar is worth grabbing. However, in terms of actual combat effectiveness, it's outclassed by pretty much every other melee weapon you'll find at the same point in the game. It's fun but not particularly useful for serious fights.
