Description
Description
It features a rich sound across the entire range, but depending on how you play it, you may feel that there is more bass.
When used with string instruments, it is highly recommended for guitarists or bassists who can put a lot of weight into their arms when picking at high speed.
Like the RT-001, the overtones and playing feel are as comfortable as an acoustic instrument, and it pairs well with simple sets from the good old days.
It can also be used in very interesting ways to output analog synths, samplers, etc.
It's a brand that is well-known for being a favorite of people who have connections with our store, such as Kawasaki Teppei, Kuroyanagi Yoshio (SOPHIA), Hiromu Fukuda (Suspended 4th), Mutsumi, etc. (titles omitted).
[Developer's comment]
This cable has been around since before the launch of NEW GRID TONE, but I wanted to add thickness to the feel of the RT-001 and create a sound that really digs into your sound... I developed it as a personal hobby, aiming for a sound that would produce a low, rounded sound with multi-string guitars and down tunings, but also a sound that would clearly cut notes with a single pick. When I happened to bring it to a venue, it was a big hit with the bassist!
We further developed this cable with the desire to play a loud, distorted guitar sound in mind, using an unbelievable cable that allows you to see the pitch even when you turn the drive knob to an incredible level of distortion...
Even with heavily distorted bass, the bass doesn't float in the orchestra and the bottom is solid! The sound doesn't waver even with the low strings of a multi-string bass!
This has also been a big hit with bassists. It's especially well-suited for the modern, crisp, and clear sound of bass. Of course, it's also a great match for guitars!
This cable has a nice sticky feel that is perfect for guitar playing that involves driving the guitar with a slightly older tube amp and picking with all your might.
The developers are having fun cranking up the gain on modern high-gain amplifiers.
