FINGER & FRETLESS
A bass sound that was popular in the seventies.
This is suited for a Jazz Bass with a rear pickup used. You can get
adistinctive fat sound when the bass is fingered near the rear pickup.
In addition, using this setting while playing harmonics in combination with
a chorus and a delay enables sounds featuring exquisite reverberation.

sound by switching on the COMPRESSOR (COMP). If you apply some
reverb, you can create a more sumptuous sound.
To obtain the attacking sound used in rock music, raise the BASS
andTREBLE settings to produce a sound with greater power.
Youcan add to this effect by reducing the MIDDLE setting.
FUNK WAH (SUPER FLAT/SESSION)

to the bass touch. The WAH effect becomes even more prominent with

thehigh-frequency range. Use the T-WAH knob to adjust the sensitivity.
Adjust the WAH effect with the knob settings according to the output ofthe
connected bass. You can get a different sound for each different playing
style, such as slap, muted or glissando.
You can get a light WAH sound by switching the COMPRESSOR (COMP)
on in the slap playing style.
