I'm looking for a acoustic guitar multisample that sounds realistic?  
Is there any out there in exs or soundfont format I can buy?  I'm 
looking at plugsounds vol.2 I believe and soundscan vol. 50.  Is there 
any others out there I should look at?  I really want a martin d28 in 
the future, but that's gonna take ahwile.  I'm tired of my presets in 
my triton right now.  

Also, tell me if there's any good realistic flute and violin 
multisamples I can buy?

I wish I had the money to get the things I want right now, just gotta 
do them with samples right now.  Can't afford session players, motif, 
and instruments.

You seem to play keyboard and guitar. Have you considered a special  
plugin? You might have a look at RealGuitar:
http://www.musiclab.com

It sounds amazing natural and is built to be controlled by a  
keyboard. RealGuitar 2.0 comes soon and will add some features but  
the 1.5 version is great too.

A lot, in all price categories. Maybe you are happy with Garritan  
Personal Orchestra, then you don't have to spend too much money:

Dry and wet samples, expression control, individual parameters like  
panning, variation etc.

A printing press helps :-)

Check out the Hans Zimmer Guitar vol1:
http://www.ilio.com/spectrasonics/hanszimmerguitarsvol1/index.html

Unfortunately this disk is in the old Roland or Akai format, but you 
can easily convert with CDXtract to softsampler formats.

Flute and violin: Vienna Symphonic is the top end.....

If you want a nylon string then I have a multisampled 24bit (every 
semitone) instrument. Played with finger vibrato and velocity layered 
slap so it has a bit more like than most. There is also an Elfolk 
acoustic with built in amplifier and speaker (really) plus tremelo.

Also some flutes which are theoretically quite low fi (downsampled and 
looped) but actually extremely useable, with and without vibrato. 
Modwheel crossfades also.
