An acoustic guitar is an improvised blunt weapon.

Usage

An acoustic guitar can be used as an improvised weapon. It has poor durability and damage, but can hit two zombies simultaneously.

It cannot be played as of Build 41.78.16.

Condition

The acoustic guitar has a maximum condition of 2. Its rate of degradation is influenced by the long blunt and maintenance skills. The chance of losing durability can be simplified to the following formula: 1 in (3 + maintenanceMod × 2). Where "maintenanceMod" is calculated using the long blunt and maintenance skills.
Below is an example of the chance of losing durability at varying levels of the maintenance and long blunt skills.

*For how this is calculated, see: Condition*
Maintenance skill	Long blunt level	Condition lower chance	Average condition
0	0	1/3 (33%)	6
0	4	1/5 (20%)	10
0	8	1/7 (14%)	14
4	0	1/7 (14%)	14
8	0	1/11 (9%)	22
4	4	1/9 (11%)	18
4	8	1/11 (9%)	22
8	8	1/15 (7%)	30
10	10	1/17 (6%)	34

Location

The loot distributions can be found in the table(s) below.

Effective chance calculations are based off of default 'apocalypse' loot settings, with no luck modifier, and average zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits. Duplicate entries do exist, but have been removed for clarity.
