Black Desert Online is a meaty game, with tons of systems and features overlapping each other across its game world. One system, though, has been only available to one class in the MMO. Well, that has finally changed.
Until now, the Shai class was the only one able to take part in Black Desert's music system, which allows players to, well, play instruments within the game world.

Just as the «Marnian» comes in several different shapes and tones, Marni's Electric Guitar comes in three different flavors as well — «Silver Wave,» for a clear, effector-less sound, «Highway,» for a refreshing and high-paced drive effector, and «Hexe Glam,» for a heavier, more-filling distortion effector."Players can take part in the «Let's Not Shy Away From Making Music» questline to start their musical careers and nab instruments from various shops around the world. Instruments can be earned through quest from the wandering musician Artina, crafted using materials from Marni's shop, or purchased from Artina's shop outright.
