??
a sound module
or soft synth software for your computer

You need to reseach this very carefully.

even so
I would suggest a Bass guitar dedicated to midi triggering
and you may feel it better to get a midi guitar

Like the development into BOX drums with V-Drums and all the competitors the guitar synth has changed greatly over the past 20 years

Ever release is better than before and ALL the problems have been solved
yeah right
until the next release ... and so on

Learn to play the keyboard ??

sorry

reseach this very carefully and try the solutions out in live and realistic situations before you jump.

i can play keyboard, ive actually been playing piano since im 7 years ols - im 25 now. Anyway, i can get a real bass guitar feel out of a keyboard, when Im playing the keyboard my bass lines sound like a keyboard not a bass. I was checking out the brian moore guitars i was pretty impressed with the midi functionality - any insight on the brian moores?

sorry
haven't looked at them and mostly only seen the various incarnations of the Roland gear ... and a couple of others.

Like electronic drums ... it all comes down to your expectations and needs.

you can or can't get your fingers to sound like a bass guitar ??

if this is for live work then you must try things out in a typical situation

this is going to be for studio work only, i just really want to utilize these patches in trilogy, and the keyboard just doesnt swing it.

i guess ill go buy some midi setup and see how it works.

if you have a spare and little used bass then this might be the one to put the hardware on to.

Strings and action can help the way the midi trigger units respond.

A very personal thing.
I know of one person that made a midi guitar with spare parts and ended up with the same gauge string on all strings

no good if you want to blend a real bass sound with the sound module in real time

Brian Moore makes really nice stuff...but if you're goin for a good midi-trigger pickup...go with a bass with Lightwave Pickups - I know Zon has them as a stock option (but Zon basses don't tend to be cheap) but i believe you can get the pickups aftermarket and have someone install'em for you. they're about as accurate and low-latency as you can get from what i understand.

peace,
