Infobox • Talk page

The Air Guitar emote requires a player to unlock at least 500 Music tracks in the RuneScape Music Player, and it features the player rocking out on an air guitar. The emote even plays 5 notes when activated. The player must have been a member to have unlocked the number of music tracks required. However, a former member can perform this emote on an free-to-play world if said player has already fulfilled the 500 track criteria.

Players trying to get 500 tracks should do quests or train Dungeoneering; there are 10 "combat tracks" plus several boss tracks in each floor environment, making it a fast way to unlock this emote.

Ardougne Tasks - Living on a Prayer requires players to perform the Air Guitar emote near the musician southeast of the monastery south of Ardougne.

A Cape of Accomplishment, instead of an emote, was the original plan for the reward for unlocking 500+ music tracks. An emote was decided instead.

Air Guitar

Plays when the emote is performed.

Update history

The update history project is a work-in-progress – not all updates to this topic may be covered below. See here for how to help out!

• patch 8 July 2009 (Update):
  • Music on Bounty Worlds will now correctly unlock the Air Guitar emote if you're eligible.

Trivia

• Upon unlocking the 500th track, players get the message "You've unlocked 500 music tracks and can use a new emote!".
• The guitar pictured in the emote's icon appears to be a Gibson Explorer.
