Great kit though.Check the Rickenbacker tutorial part 4 about slides.īasically your problem is probably a result of hand position and automatic string selection.Įxample: you slide up from E1 to E2 and end in fret 12. (technically it's for heavy duty but you can use it with cleans too.I have the mm and Pre, and have yet to get the hang of slides. It does the job I've mentioned if you don't know how to do it by yourself. Apart from the guitar itself, the plugin you've mentioned sounds good but lacks soul of a bass player's hands but that's not the topic.ĭo you have a sound interface? Try Darkglass Parallax. Some might say it's artificial, some might say it's well engineered. This will make your guitar sound like a different one. Then distort mid and high frequencies as much as you like and ring it thru a cabinet IR if you like. Only compress low band frequencies and let it ring thru DI signal. On engineering aspect, people tend to separate low, mid and high frequencies on bass guitars.

(and you got your reply from 3004 owners, it sounds different) Since this is a well sounding plugin, I don't think you'll get the same sound with playing the same guitar directly without any modification.
