Guitar: Difference between revisions

}}In ''[[The Sims: Livin Large]]'', guitar performance is controlled by the [[Creativity (skill)|Creativity]] skill. Sims will play better as their creativity goes up, and Sims who come to watch are more likely to respond positively.▼

}}In ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'', guitar performance is controlled by the [[Creativity (skill)|creativity]] skill. As with other instruments, Sims play better as their creativity goes up. Also, as creativity climbs, Sims can play the instrument in slightly different ways. For example, Sims with high creativity can put the guitar behind their back while playing.▼

}}In ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]'', the career reward for the [[Music (career)#The Sims 2|Music]] career track is a guitar known as [[career reward#The Rock Hammer|The Rock Hammer]]. It increases the learning rate for the [[Creativity (skill)|creativity]] skill by 400%.▼

}}In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', guitar performance is controlled by the [[guitar skill]]. The reputation Sims have with you will increase as they watch you play the guitar.{{clarify}} Sims have three options once they reach at least level five: to play for tips (money), to perform a song/composition, or simply to play. Performing a song makes a Sim reach the next level more speedily. Another option is unlocked at this level; when a Sim is with their significant other, they may serenade them. Guitars can be placed in the Sim's [[inventory]] and played on [[community lot]]s.▼

Unlike the game's predecessors, the guitar appears to be an acoustic guitar rather than an electric due to the absence of an amplifier. This means that less space is required to place it on a lot. ▼

}}[[TheSims3.com|The Sims 3 Store]] offers one additional guitar which is effectively just a reskinned Sonaflux Guitar. It is part of a [[Wikipedia:Steampunk|steampunk]] set.{{Fact}}▼

}}In ''[[The Sims 3: High-End Loft Stuff]]'' there is an electric guitar for Sims with different properties from either the Sonaflux Guitar or the Dulcinea Guitar. It plays a clean electric note, instead of acoustic, and playing it at a low Guitar skill level can summon a noise complaint from neighbours, resulting in a police visit. It also generates a small amplifier when it is played, similar to the Sonaflux's guitar case when playing for tips. It plays all the same compositions as the Sonaflux, but with an electric tone to them. However, on the Sonaflux Guitar, 'A Perfect Moment' is a [[Wikipedia:Bourrée|Bourrée]] style calm piece, whereas on the Das Kauker it starts off in the same way, but abruptly turns into a wild, improvisational electric guitar solo. The guitar itself resembles a [[wikipedia:Gretsch|50s/60s Gretsch guitar]].▼

}}In ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'', an exclusive electric guitar can be obtained as a gift received by a five-star [[celebrity]]. This guitar cannot be bought through buy mode without using cheats; however, it can be sold for §2000. This guitar's pointed bottom resembles the Ibanez ICT.▼

}}In ''[[The Sims 3: 70s, 80s, & 90s Stuff]]'' there is a guitar inspired by the 80s. While it looks like an electric guitar, it is actually an acoustic guitar and plays the acoustic guitar sounds. Despite having a name that implies a connection with Grunge music, the general design of the guitar more closely resembles those played by heavy metal bands in the 1980's, which the grunge movement, ironically, was strongly opposed to.▼

}}In ''[[The Sims 3: Into the Future]]'', this guitar is more of a futuristic feature. This is also the only guitar that has a body with a large hole.▼
